Michael Cohen Disbarred Following Felony Conviction For Lying Under Oath |
2019-02-27 |
![]() ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... ’s former-attorney-turned rat has been disbarred, reported the New York Post. The decision, which follows his felony conviction for lying under oath, was announced in documents released Tuesday by Manhattan’s Appellate Division, First Department and the Attorney Grievance Committee. New York law mandates disbarment for felony convictions. According to the law, any lawyer "who shall be convicted of a felony ... shall upon such conviction, cease to be an attorney and counsellor-at-law, or to be competent to practice law as such." Mr. Cohen can file for reinstatement in seven years ‐ or sooner if he were to be pardoned (not going to happen). Michael Cohen was sentenced to 36 months in prison for lying to Congress and other charges related to his taxi medallion company in December and will report to prison on May 6th. |

#5 Democrats tell us the American people have a right to hear him and judge his credibility for themselves...just like we judged Christine Blasley Ford. |

#3 Michael Cohen isn't disbarred in New York — yet "A legal document published by Courthouse News later on Tuesday declares Cohen disbarred, but bears a date of Feb. 28, 2019 — two days in the future. The document indicated a five-attorney panel found Cohen cannot practice law after his guilty plea." |
