Re: Admission to Bar of another state or a disbarred attorne

More | Report Post

I don't know about another state allowing a new admission
after one state has disbarred. But, take a look at this:
http://www.metnews.com/opinion/persp-stbar-r.htm

"Silverton is a former disbarred lawyer -- that is, he has his
license back... he's also an ex-felon. ... tells of...
convictions for conspiracy to obtain money by false pretenses
and to present a fraudulent insurance claim, and for
soliciting another to commit or join in the commission of
grand theft ..."

"... a southern California attorney who was disbarred and
REINSTATED may win the dubious distinction of becoming the
second lawyer in the state to be disbarred twice... [he] faces
25 counts of misappropriating funds from clients and has a
second case on appeal before the State Bar Court's review
department..." [reference omitted.]
