(1) she is a person of ethical fitness,

(2) she has not engaged in the unauthorized practice of law since 10 March 1999, when she voluntarily relinquished her Oklahoma law license, and

(3) the applicant is sufficiently abreast of intervening changes to qualify for reinstatement without examination.

The applicant's license to practice law in the State of Oklahoma shall stand reinstated upon her payment of the assessed costs of this proceeding in the sum of $304.24.
