February 2007 Multistate Performance Test (MPT)

The MPT Question administered by the State Board of Law Examiners for the February 2007 bar examination was Glickman v. Phoenix Cycles, Inc. Two representative good answers selected by the Board are included with the representative good answers for the Board's Essay Test.

The National Conference of Bar Examiners publishes the MPT Question and the "point sheet" describing the issues and the discussion expected in a successful response to the MPT Question. The "point sheet" is analogous to the Board's Analysis prepared by the State Board of Law Examiners for each of the essay questions.

The NCBE does not permit the Board to publish the MPT Question or the "point sheet" on the Board's website. However, the NCBE does offer the MPT Question and "point sheet" for sale on its website, usually in mid-June for a February examination question.
