New White House spokesperson Katie Zachariah faces questions about her legal qualifications. Doubts arose after her first day in office, when she was unable to clearly answer where she took the bar exam and obtained a license to practice law. hnonline.sk ↗
Zachariah has repeatedly presented herself as a lawyer. According to available information, however, she did not pass the bar exam in California and does not hold a license to practice law in that US state. The White House therefore faced a barrage of questions on Wednesday about her education and professional credentials. ekonomika.pravda.sk ↗
When reporters asked her where she took the bar exam, she responded that it was in connection with her move to China. However, this response still did not clarify in which jurisdiction she took the exam or on what basis she uses the title of lawyer. teraz.sk ↗
The case may be examined to determine whether it involved unauthorized practice of posing as a lawyer. In the United States, falsely claiming legal qualifications can also carry criminal consequences, and the possibility of prison time has been mentioned in connection with Zachariah. However, it is not yet known whether any charges have been filed against her. ekonomika.pravda.sk ↗
Questions surrounding the new spokesperson's qualifications thus arose shortly after she took office. The White House will have to clarify her education, completion of the bar exam, and the legal basis for using her professional title. STVR (Spravy) ↗
