Gentlemen:

I have been an active member of the South Carolina Bar for more than 12 years although I have not appeared in a South Carolina Court during that period of time. I am also a member of the bar of 2 other states.

Over the years, I did not and do not object to the escalating cost of membership in the S. C. Bar. However, I find the requirement for continuing legal education presents a difficult problem for me due to the nature of my law practice and the fact that the state in which I practice has no such requirement. Therefore, I must submit my resignation from the South Carolina Bar effective immediately. I have enjoyed my relationship with the Bar over the years and regret having to take this step.

Yours truly,

s/ David L. Gore
