Stark Ligon, Executive Director, Supreme Court Committee on Professional Conduct v. James P. Clouette, Arkansas Bar…

Summary

The court held that disbarment was unavailable because the Director had not initiated the separate disbarment procedure required by the governing procedures. It further held that caution was not an authorized sanction for serious misconduct and remanded for the Committee to impose an appropriate sanction, while affirming the finding that Clouette did not violate Rule 8.4(d).
