Subject: [NFBC-Info] Blind Bar Applicants in NY and DC Can Take Bar Exam
Remotely

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 

BLIND BAR APPLICANTS IN NY AND DC CAN TAKE BAR EXAM REMOTELY

_NATIONAL FEDERATION OF THE BLIND URGES OTHER STATE BARS AND EXAMINING
AUTHORITIES TO IMPLEMENT REMOTE EXAMS WITH ADA ACCOMMODATIONS_

BALTIMORE, MARYLAND (OCTOBER 19, 2020): The National Federation of the
Blind, America's civil rights organization of the blind, commended bar
admission authorities in New York and the District of Columbia for
implementing accommodation procedures that are allowing blind bar candidates
to take their licensing examinations remotely, as non-disabled candidates
are being permitted to do during the COVID-19 pandemic, but expressed
concern that other jurisdictions are not following suit. The New York and
District of Columbia bar administrators had initially said they would permit
blind candidates to take the examination in accessible formats and with
technology accommodations, such as the use of text-to-speech screen reader
technology and Braille devices, only at an in-person location with an
on-site proctor. The National Federation of the Blind raised objections to
this plan on behalf of a blind candidate, Seif-Eldeen Saqallah, citing
relevant provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the
examining authorities quickly changed course. 

"The law requires--and common sense demands--that blind people and other
candidates with disabilities be allowed to take high-stakes licensure
examinations remotely during this time of pandemic if non-disabled
candidates are permitted to do so," said Mark Riccobono, President of the
National Federation of the Blind. "We demand that bar-admissions authorities
currently not granting accommodations for remote testing, such as the state
bar in California, do so immediately. The National Federation of the Blind
will fight for the right of blind people to be treated equally with respect
to the bar examination and other tests that will determine their educational
and career opportunities, as we have throughout our history."
