The Pacific Reporter, 74 vols., contains all Idaho decisions from and including vol. 2 (1881), and all decisions for the last 21 years of Arizona, California, Colorado, Kansas, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. Owing to the limited quantity of local precedents, it is necessary to go to other states for case-law authorities, and the Pacific is usually regarded as indispensable. The Idaho Code was adapted from that of California, and the decisions of that state are therefore followed closely by the Idaho courts. The Pacific Reporter contains nearly 70 per cent. of all the decisions as reported in the California Reports, and, in addition, upward of 1.800 decisions omitted from the State Reports, and only published in the Reporter. The tables of cross-citations furnished with the Pacific make it a simple matter to find cases, even if cited to the State Reports only. Write for prices and full information. Citizenship-Age-Character. Every applicant for admission shall present to the board of examiners his affidavit, or that of some other reputable citizen for him, that he is a citizen of the United States, a resident of this state, and 21 years of age; also, a transcript of record from a court of record showing that the petitioner is of good moral character.

Examination-Regulations-Scope-Fee. Applications for examination shall be made at any time to the State Board.

All decisions from and including vol. 114 are reported in the Northeastern Reporter, 68 vols., together with all decisions for the last 19 years from Indiana, Massachusetts, New York, and Ohio. The set is sold for a small part of the cost of the corresponding State Reports. Indeed, it costs more to keep up the Illinois Reports alone than it does to continue the Northeastern Reporter. Tables of cross-citations make the cases perfectly available, however cited. The Northeastern Reporter, containing, as it does, all the current decisions of the states in which the great commercial centers of the country are located, is considered the best set of reports on commercial law and kindred topics extant. The Illinois Appellate Court Reports, of which there are now 108 vols. (1877-1904), cover the decisions of inferior courts of appellate jurisdiction and are published in Illinois.

Every voter of the state of good moral character shall be entitled to practice. Examination-Regulations-Scope. Owing to the constitutional provision, the court is limited in its power to regulate admissions. The examinations are usually oral and of brief duration. No examination as to legal attainments can be made over the objection of the applicant. Admission of Attorneys from Other Jurisdictions. The court shall permit attorneys from other states to practice in this state during the continuance of the term in which application was made. Source of Rules.
