In the sanctions portion of the proceeding, disciplinary counsel Hamilton Fox III pointed to the seriousness of aggravating factors in Clark’s violations.
“Because of the stakes, because of the effect on the fundamental fabric of the democracy, which Mr. Clark had to know about, you throw out those cases and look at the effect of what he did,” Fox said.
The counsel pointed to Clark’s own character witness, who said he was an excellent lawyer, “who had to know what he was doing, who had to know the effect of what he was doing on our country, who had to know that he was participating in an existential threat to our constitutional democracy, and no lawyer who engages in such misconduct, whatever his motives may be, no lawyer ought to be permitted to hold a license to practice law in the District of Columbia.”
“And I would submit to you that in the context of what he did, the only sanction is disbarment,” he concluded.
The disciplinary panel said it would decide on Clark’s sanctions later.
I’m gonna try using this when I get in trouble with the law in the future. “You can’t ‘weaponize’ the laws like that, judge. It isn’t fair.” It’ll prolly go about as well as the SovCit shitheads arguing about maritime gobbledygook.
Weird how a group of people doing major crimes together are being targeted by the DoJ. Must be because they signed some documents with black or blue ink smh.
I didn’t know we had so many unemployed experts in civil engineering and maritime law. Maybe they should head to Baltimore and get all this sorted out. 🤣
