Question 22

Multiple Choice

Sylvia has just graduated from law school and is completing her application to become a member of her state bar association. She is concerned about a theft conviction from several years ago.

A) omit the conviction and, if it comes up later, admit that it was omitted intentionally to show good moral character.
B) omit the conviction and use a false social security number so the conviction will not be discovered.
C) omit the conviction and, if it comes up later, just say that the omission was a simple error.
D) tell the truth on her application because lying or omitting will be seen as evidence of bad moral character.
