Supreme Court of Georgia
In the Matter of Franklin David McCrea
October 4, 2022314 Ga. 810
Summary
The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed the Special Master’s recommendation and ordered the disbarment of Franklin David McCrea, finding that his multiple violations of the Georgia Rules of Professional Conduct, coupled with his failure to respond to disciplinary proceedings, warranted the maximum sanction. The Court relied on prior case law and ABA standards to conclude that aggravating circumstances outweighed the sole mitigating factor of a clean prior record.
