Stark Ligon, as Executive Director of the Supreme Court Committee on Professional Conduct v. Bobby D. McCallister…

Summary

The court adopted the special judge’s findings that the attorney committed serious professional misconduct by failing to timely file state income-tax returns over several years, including while serving as a circuit judge. It concluded that a nine-month suspension was appropriate because the misconduct undermined public confidence in the judiciary but did not produce a financial windfall, affect clients, or relate to the practice of law.
