[edit] Disbarment?
What caused his disbarment? -- Toytoy June 28, 2005 18:06 (UTC)
- Texas State Bar records show Van Orden's law license was suspended in 1985, in 1989 and in 1999 -- mostly for taking money from clients for work that he did not perform and for failing to pay fees ordered in disciplinary judgments. The 1995 suspension also ordered him to provide a psychiatric opinion certifying that his "current state of mental health does not render him incapable of routine law practice."
- Van Orden remains on active suspension, prohibited from representing anyone in court other than himself, because he has failed to pay fees ordered in the 1995 disciplinary judgment, a bar official said. He also has not paid the bar dues to reactivate his license.
