F. Lee Bailey, the attorney who represented O.J. Simpson and Patty Hearst, had been denied his request to practice law in Maine.

The 79-year-old Bailey passed the Maine bar exam last winter. He was previously licensed in Massachusetts and Florida, but was disbarred in those states for mishandling $6 million worth of stock for a client.

Mishandling is a misnomer, it’s called stealing or fraud by common people.

I just checked. Hard to believe, but yes, he is still alive. He joins Abe Vigoda as one of the past famous that almost everyone thinks is dead.

You're thinking of Pearl Bailey
