Judge orders ‘intentionally deceptive’ DOJ lawyers to take remedial ethics classes
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3432101/posts?page=33#33
there was a separate order affecting the lawyers who misled the judge.
The lawyers are allowed to be in this judge’s court room sort of by invitation. (I forget the legal term.) The judge has reportedly removed that permission for those lawyers. This order would apparently apply in all 26 states which were plaintiffs in the case.
Some lawyers might be able to shrug off being banned in half the states but there might be others for whom that is a punishment.
Not really a punishment at all. They still get paid. Will probably get bonus’. Nothing in their file. DOJ will not punish. They gave the orders. These lawyers didn’t do this on their own. They are still thumbing their noses at the public by refusing to act on Hillary’s crimes. Maybe they will have to take a 6 hour course on ethics. No harm-No Foul Ruling.
That part of the order is at the end:
The Court does not have the power to disbar the counsel in this case, but it does have the power to revoke the pro hac vice status of out-of-state lawyers who act unethically in court. By a separate sealed order that it is simultaneously issuing, that is being done.
It's too bad that the second order is sealed. I think US taxpayers deserve to know the name of these scumbags. Yes, they would have been the target of some harassment, but if they realize they could be held personally and publicly accountable, they might have had some second thoughts about lying to the judge.
I will also point out that the judge singles out a subset of the US DoJ lawyers for praise:
The Court notes that to its knowledge none of the acts cited in this or prior orders were committed by attorneys from the United States Attorney’s Office in the Southern District of Texas. To date, without exception, these attorneys have acted and continue to act, in this Court’s experience, with honor, professionalism and forthrightness.
I still think the judge should file a complaint with the appropriate bar associations. He may not have the ability to disbar the offenders, but he can certainly make their life difficult in the future. With such a mark on their record, no significant law firm would ever hire them.
