Someone should dig deeper, because something’s not right here. The New Jersey CLE requirements are not that bad: they require only 24 hours of CLE every two years of which 4 have to be in Ethics (snicker). In the case of an attorney working and living out of state, these can be done through the Internet, see BCLE Reg. 201:8(b). This means that she would only have had to spend a few evenings a year watching CLE seminars over the Web. That can't be the reason she surrendered her license; there has to more to it.

Many of these online courses allow you to go straight to the exam. If she did that, and passed each test, she could satisfy the entire requirement in four hours +/-.

CPE for lawyers & CPAs is a highly profitable cottage industry.
