>From what I have been taught you do NOT have to wait until their 10
hours are completed before writing a letter of reccomendation. In Texas
it is not at all uncommon to be asked to write a letter of reccomdation
immediately following a tutoring session. What is critical is that the
letter be written for a prospective judge that YOU have tutored. I
think this stipulation holds throughout AIS, but have been wrong before.
