'''Reading law''' is a pathway to becoming a [[lawyer]] by self-study under the supervision of a practicing or retired [[judge]] or [[attorney]]. During the 1800's, before [[law school]]s, it was the only way of studying to be a lawyer; many famous lawyers such as [[Abraham Lincoln]], [[Patrick Henry]], [[John Jay]], and [[John Marshall]] read law.

As a result of the liberal [[American Bar Association]]'s lobbying, most states have eliminated this pathway in favor of graduation from a ABA approved law school. However, seven states, ([[California]], New York, Wyoming, [[Virginia]], [[Washington]], [[Maine]], and [[Vermont]]<ref>http://www.ehlinelaw.com/pages/3226/How_to_Become_a_Lawyer_With_No_Law_School-Be_a_Lawyer_With_No_College.htm</ref>), still allow people to qualify to be lawyers by reading the law.

==California Law Office Study Program==
In the '''California Law Office Study Program''', applicants read law under the supervision of a judge or attorney for four years. Applicants generally have a college degree; however, this can be waved in favor of credit from [[CLEP]] exams. Applicants must be tested at the end of the first year.
