New Jersey Bar Application Question

So, it just dawned on me that I've applied for the NJ Bar, but forgot to order a driver's abstract to submit with my application.

The deadline is July 1. Does anyone know if it's too late to order one and have it submitted before the deadline?

You could try calling the DMV - there may be a number on the form (it gets sent to Albany.) Maybe they can email it to you?
Also, did you get fingerprinted?

Thanks for your response.

Yea, I got finger printed.

For some stupid reason, I just totally blanked on the driving record stuff.

Thank you

No worries. I spaced on it too, sent it in a couple weeks ago but still nervous. If I don't have mine by next Wednesday, I'm going to try calling.

Nice. Never even thought to check to see if there was a way to get it on line.

The turnaround on mine was surprisingly quickly - not even a full week, and I had two statesf. You should have time. Also, they will still let you sit for the bar, so if you miss the deadline by a few days you'll still be OK.
