N.Y. Civil Practice Law & Rules § 9405: Prior application

Rule 9405. Prior application. In the event that any applicant has

made a prior application for admission to practice in this state or in

any other jurisdiction, then upon said statement or questionnaire or in

an accompanying signed statement, he shall set forth in detail all the

facts with respect to such prior application and its disposition. If

such prior application had been filed in any appellate division of this

state and if the applicant failed to obtain a certificate of good

character and fitness from the appropriate character committee or if for

any reason such prior application was disapproved or rejected either by

said committee or said appellate division, he shall obtain and submit

the written consent of said appellate division to the renewal of his

application in that appellate division or in any other appellate
