  • Jack Thompson Disbarred In Florida

    Everyone's favorite lawyer was permanently disbarred today. According to Shacknews, Jack Thompson, one of the leaders in the anti-videogame movement, has been disbarred for a number of guilty counts of misconduct. Check it out:
    he legal career of anti-game crusader Jack Thompson is to come to an end.

    It was previously reported that Thompson was recommended a ten-year "enhanced disbarment" from the Florida Bar in connection to his 27 guilty counts of misconduct. It turns out that the recommendation was later upgraded by the Bar to full-blown permanent disbarment and the court presiding over Thompson's case concurred, according to Kotaku.

    Thompson now has thirty days to close out his practice--in "the interests of existing clients." Adding to his problems, "no motion for rehearing will be considered unless signed by a member in good standing of The Florida Bar other than [Thompson]." That is, if Thompson wants to seek a retrial, he has to have another Bar member vouch for him--something no one has done in his current trial.

    Let's not forget his reply e-mail where he says this...
    The timing of this disbarment transparently reveals its motivation: This past Friday Thompson filed a federal civil rights action against The Bar, the Supreme Court, and all seven of its Justices. This rush to disbarment is in retribution for the filing of that federal suit. With enemies this foolish, Thompson needs only the loyal friends he has. ...

    Thompson always wanted to own a Bar. Now, armed with multiple US Supreme Court rulings that no state bar can do what it has done to Thompson, he is set to own that Bar.


    One less nut practicing law, at least.
