Letter of recommendation

If I get an LOR for 2019, but don’t end up applying, and instead apply next year for the 2020 cycle, would that be ok?

Absolutely!

Thanks

I think if you're able, you should definitely contact the individual that wrote the recommendation and ask them to update the date if you intend to apply for 2020. @CoffeeBeans

That is absolutely fine. My pre-law dean actually recommended getting LORs right after finishing a class with a professor and having it on file in our pre-law office for future use. I think it shows early planning/preparedness and that you've been serious about law school for a long time.
