Trump ally Sidney Powell defeats appeal in Texas attorney ethics case


quote:

April 18 (Reuters) - A Texas appellate court on Wednesday upheld a decision to reject attorney disciplinary charges against Donald Trump ally Sidney Powell, finding that the state's bar failed to prove that she had engaged in "fraud, dishonesty, deceit, or misrepresentation."


The Dallas-based Fifth Court of Appeals of Texas said in a 23-page opinion, opens new tab that state bar prosecutors "employed a 'scattershot' approach to the case," which alleged that Powell had "no reasonable basis" for filing lawsuits challenging U.S. President Joe Biden's 2020 election victories in key battleground states.



Basically the finding is that you only act unethically if you knew the claim was bogus and brought it anyway.

If you honestly believe in the claim (even if mistaken) then you as an attorney brought it ethically.

The court basically said that the bar did not show that she knew the claims were bogus.

Only if you truly believe in the Kraken.

Then you are not unethical.

You mean all the attorneys that try to defend people that are easily guilty don’t get disbarred? You mean every frivolous BS lawsuit doesn’t get the attorney disbarred??? Some dude actually got a lawyer to sue Buffalo Wild Wings for claiming their boneless wings, weren’t actually the same wings without bones in them.,,,you mean he didn’t disbarred?

The Kraken was released long ago. The country was told to not pay attention so we didn’t.

I didn't really make too many personal judgments. I told people to wait for the process to unfold and many told me it was too corrupt to trust.
