Judge With Cocaine Problem Wrongly Uses Opinion Letters and is Disbarred

Suspension vs Disbarment?
from USherald.com

I have previously blogged and videoed about using Opinion Letters in legal defense. A recent case of a disbarred Pennsylvania attorney gives further proof of the true value of properly utilized opinion letters. This attorney provided the wrong type of letters.

How to use an opinion letter is important but what type of letter to use in each specific case is crucial. The difference in this case was between a period of suspension from practice, and a disbarment. In other words a temporary professional license loss versus a lifetime license loss.

What did this attorney do to have to face a disciplinary hearing?
What letters did he and his attorney provide?
Why were those letters ineffective at saving his license to practice law?
