Description
The respondent in this lawyer discipline case forged three court documents to conceal his neglect of an adoption case. A hearing panel of the supreme court grievance committee approved the recommendation of a hearing board that the respondent be disbarred. The respondent excepted to the panel's action on the ground that disbarment is too severe a sanction, and that he should instead be suspended for three years. He has also moved that the disciplinary proceedings be dismissed because they supposedly violate the multiple punishment component of the Double Jeopardy Clause. We conclude that the disciplinary proceedings did not violate double jeopardy, and that the hearing panel's recommendation of disbarment is appropriate.
