In a world that revolves around social media stars, Kim K reigns supreme as the girl that’s famous for no good reason at all. Well, unless you count her sex tape. Over the past few years, Kim got seemingly bored with just pouting for the camera and instead decided to get involved with practicing law.
Johnson was sentenced to life imprisonment without parole in 1997 for her mid-level involvement in a cocaine ring.
With great power comes great responsibility. Kim has no way of knowing if Gutierrez is really innocent. Even if he didn’t commit the murder himself, he readily admitted to planning the robbery. Kim wants to use her influence to get people to listen to her, but that’s the problem.
Despite her plea to Obama when he was in office , she wasn’t released until Kim Kardashian caught wind of Johnson’s case and made a personal plea to President Trump. Kim’s appeal wasn’t based on law. Just a “feeling.”. I just couldn’t sit back and see Alice spend the rest of her life in prison.

She can pass the California bar with flying colors. But, the influencer will never be a real lawyer. She is far too well known and influential. Her very presence in the law industry has the potential to do more harm than good. Don't Miss:
Reality television star Kim Kardashian was on the cover of the May 2019 issue of Vogue and in it, she announced that she wants to become a lawyer. As Kim's fans surely know, her late father Robert Kardashian, was an attorney who gained fame by being on O.J. Simpson’s defense team.
It's no secret that Kim Kardashian does not have an undergraduate degree — however, in the state of California, she doesn't need one to become a lawyer. There, Kim can take the bar exam without an official degree and if she passes it she can officially launch her career in law.
In the premiere of season 20 of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Kim is seen taking the baby bar exam — a mandatory exam known as the First-Year Law Students' Examination. Here's what she said:
While the star certainly prepared a lot for the baby bar — she did not pass it. Kim received a 474 on the test and for passing, she needed a 560. In an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians that aired this spring, Kim revealed:
The reality television star retook the baby bar last November and at the time she was COVID positive. Here's what Kim said after taking the exam for a second time:
Unfortunately, Kim Kardashian also failed her second attempt at the baby bar — and this time her result was slightly worse than the first time as she scored a 463. Here's what Kim said about not passing:
Kim was supposed to take the baby bar exam for the third time in June 2021 but so far it is unknown whether the reality television star actually took it.
One important thing to note about her new career path is that Kim Kardashian is not going to law school. “But how can you become a lawyer without law school?” One might ask.
The Baby Bar Exam, in accordance with California Law, is considered the equivalent of one year of law school. Passing this test is a prerequisite for becoming a fully qualified attorney in the state of California. Once one passes the baby bar and endures another year or two of study as an apprentice, one can take the state’s bar exam.
Kim Kardashian utilized her family's legal connections (remember, her father defended O.J. Simpson) to land an apprenticeship with two well-established female attorneys, Erin Haney and Jessica Jackson.
Haney and Jackson are not the only ones helping Kim Kardashian study. Law professor Steve Calandrillo from the University of Washington helped tutor Kim in contracts and contract law via Zoom before she took the baby bar exam. When she passed the baby bar exam, Caladrillo was quoted by U.S.
Kim Kardashian going into law, especially criminal defense, makes perfect sense if one stops dwelling on the fact she was a reality tv star and remembers that her father is the late Robert Kardashian.
