This Actually Happened In Probate Court

What happens when a lawyer throws his client under the bus in probate court?

Why he gets a reprimand, of course.

Shouldn’t he be reprimanded? His actions are deplorable. Give the courts the power to do more without combining them with the Superior Court system.

Terrible. See, its the 99% of lawyers that give the 1% of good lawyers a bad name.

This reprimand may have been stayed if I read this correctly:

Gee, last time I checked, I could have sworn that fraud and stealing were “Criminal Offenses.”
