she can do anything she wants to do if she sticks to it, I mean after all she is the first lady. Anyone can do anything if they stick their mind to it.

Second answer: I believe that her license is currently in "inactive" status, so that she doesn't have to pay the state license fees or take the continuing education courses that actively-practicing lawyers are required to take. If she wants to practice as some point in the future, she will have to comply with her state bar re-admission requirements so that her license will be reinstated. State rules differ, so I don't know what her situation will be if she decides she wants to practice law at some tiume in the future.

It is not uncommon for people to have been practicing law for a while when their lives take another turn, and they eventually decide they don't want to (or won't have the time to) practice law for the forseeable future. The license fees and required continuing education courses are expensive.

Yes and no. When she knew her husband Barack was going to enter politics and ultimately run for president, she allowed her law license to expire, since she was no longer going to have time to practice law. Thus, her license is currently on "inactive" status. But because she left the legal profession in good standing, she can resume the practice of law whenever she chooses to renew her license.

Absolutely. Any time she wants to, in fact. But she allowed her law license to expire when she knew she was going to be helping her husband with his campaign. She would have to renew her license so that it would be on "active" rather than inactive status. Since she left the legal profession in good standing, she would have no problem going back to it, if that is what she decided to do.
