Barkley School of Law is Closing

The Barkley School of Law -- formerly known as the American Justice School of Law -- is withdrawing its application with the state for a license to operate in 2009.

The decision comes at the end of a turbulent year for the Paducah, Ky., for-profit institution, during which it faced a lawsuit, disturbing allegations by students, dwindling enrollment, new leadership, a name change and finally, a bankruptcy filing. Source: The National Law Journal
