[blindlaw] Responding to Zoom Text Question

Hi Daniel,

I'm just writing to ensure that the NY Bar Commissioners aren't making
you use the testing software that testtakers typically use. My
experience, consistent with other blind lawyers, is that this software
is inaccessible with the JAWS screen reader, and I imagine there's a
good chance it wouldn't be accessible with Zoomtext either. Good luck
and happy studying!

Best,
Chris
