Disbar the SOB!

Conspiracy theorist attorney Lin Wood has asked the State Bar of Georgia to allow him to retire his law license after the bar mulled a disbarment for the pro-Trump lawyer. Wood, who helped launch the Stop The Steal movement, became a top promoter of election fraud hoaxes after the 2020 presidential election. But some of his more outlandish claims, including his open embrace of the QAnon conspiracy theory, have led to a deluge of legal challenges, including a lawsuit from former colleagues, and disciplinary proceedings in Georgia, where the bar held a hearing this spring to assess his fitness to practice law. In a July 4 letter to the bar, Wood requested that he “be permitted to transfer to Retired Status” immediately. “I understand that this request is unqualified, irrevocable and permanent,” he wrote. In a post on Telegram that same day, Wood announced that “Today, I AM RETIRED!!! The State Bar of Georgia has agreed to drop the disciplinary cases against me in return for my agreement to take the status of RETIRED.”
