No person holding such certificate of exemption is permitted to practice law in this state until reinstated. The supreme court will make rules and regulations governing the continuing legal education requirements for reinstatement of attorneys who, for any reason, have not been entitled to practice law in this state for any period of time subsequent to their admission to the bar.
