That’s a list of bad lawyers who give good lawyers a bad name.
Non lawyer here
Expound on what a public reprimand constitutes ?
C's make degrees!
It's good to see the Bar Association making efforts to police their ranks.
While we are on the subject of outstanding lawyers, does anyone know the current status of none other than Carlos the Clown? Asking for several friends.
12:49 the same thing the SEC office made Kirby Smart do after shoving a player. Apologize.
Scanned for the Clown. Did not see him listed.
Guy Rogers (Suspended due to felony conviction of contraband in jail). Why suspended versus disbarment? No wonder Carlos walks around as free as a bird.
"Seven Years Of College Down The Drain"...
12:49: in depth write up of what they did. Is searchable
Shot through the heart and you're to blame.
Baby, you give lawyering a bad name (a BAD name)!
Lots of sorriness out there
@12:49: A person that gets a public reprimand has to appear before the Senior Circuit judge in his or her home county usually on the first day of a term or when the court has the opportunity to read the public reprimand aloud in open court in front of a full courtroom of citizens. This amounts to a public humiliation of the lawyer. TJ e public reprimand stays on the lawyers record for the rest of her career and can be used as an aggravating factor in future disciplinary proceedings. Think of it as getting a 2d or 3d DUI. Reprimands lead to suspensions and debarments in that sense.
It is not a slap on the wrist by any means.
3:24 I thought "shaming" another person in any way, form or manner is now a criminal offense. That's tantamount to hurting someone's feelings, and in this era following the death of shame, I'm shocked to hear that's even considered! Gosh, that's almost as bad as "bullying!" (e.g. what was done to those who - now vindicated - chose to avoid the Covid jab)
Are we going to see a similar post for the Physician sanctions/reprimands?
I understand researchers have started using lawyers instead of lab rats in their experiments because (wait for it...) there's some things you just can't get a rat to do.
