  A search of the Two Micron All Sky Survey and Sloan Digital Sky
  Survey reveals 36 previously unknown high proper motion objects with
  J<17. Their red-optical colors indicate that 27 are M dwarfs, 8 are
early-type L dwarfs, and 1 is a late-type T dwarf. The L dwarfs have J-Ks
colors near the extrema of known L dwarfs indicating that previous surveys for
L dwarfs using color as a selection criterion may be biased. Followup
near-infrared spectroscopy of 6 dwarfs confirm they are all late-type with
spectral types ranging from M8 to T4. Spectroscopy also shows that some of the
L dwarf spectra exhibit peculiar features similar to other peculiar "blue" L
dwarfs which may indicate that these dwarfs have a relatively condensate free
atmosphere or may be metal poor. Photometric distance estimates indicate that
22 of the new M, L and T dwarfs lie within 100 pc of the Sun with the newly
discovered T dwarf, 2MASS J10595185+3042059, located at about 25 pc. Based on
the colors and proper motions of the newly identified objects, several appear
to be good subdwarf candidates. The proper motions of known ultracool dwarfs
detected in our survey were also measured, including, for the first time, SDSS
J085834.42+325627.6 (T1), SDSS J125011.65+392553.9 (T4) and 2MASS
J15261405+2043414 (L7).
