Stirring S**t

SUBJECT: Professional Misconduct

 

Dear Ms. Brown

 

As a concerned citizen, I am drawing your attention to the actions of two of your members, Diana DeGette and Joseph Neguse.

 

They were part of the second impeachment of former President Trump and presented inaccurate, false, and incomplete information to the United States Senate. The following was taken from your association’s public information on the internet.

 

Colorado Court Rules
Colorado Rules of Professional Conduct

Maintaining the Integrity of the Profession

As amended through Rule Change 2018(6), effective April 12, 2018

(a)  A lawyer who knows that another lawyer has committed a violation of the Rules of Professional Conduct that raises a substantial question as to that lawyer's honesty, trustworthiness or fitness as a lawyer in other respects, shall inform the appropriate professional authority.

 

Clearly, even to a layman, their conduct did not meet your association’s stated values.

When, or if, your association disbar or at least sanction their misconduct?

 

Sincerely yours,

 

 

Frank B. White


I will share any response I receive.

Good question. I wonder how/if they'll reply.

Thank you.

I will give it a few days then send a copy to Rep. Buck (R), the rep from my district and a former District Attorney. Most likely still a member of the bar.

Well done. Hope you get a result.

Thank you. I don't expect an answer. Whoever opens her mail will probably toss it in the wastebasket.

I say disbar all lawyers everywhere. Buy hey, that's probably just me.

Better to bar them from holding public office.
