Probably not a bar to admission to law school but it may cause a problem getting admitted to the bar. It depends on the the circumstances. If it was a plea to a misdemeanor on a plea to a reduced charge that was originally a serious felony, it may be treated differently from a case which started out as a misdemeanor.
