Supreme Court of Georgia

In the Matter of Ashutosh S. Joshi

December 19, 2023318 Ga. 20

Summary

The Court accepted Ashutosh S. Joshi’s post-remand petition to voluntarily surrender his law license, a disposition tantamount to disbarment. Although Joshi continued to deny the more serious alleged misconduct, his admission to violating Rule 4.2 (a), combined with his sworn promise never to seek readmission, made further fact-finding unnecessary because any additional sanction could be no greater than disbarment. The Court therefore ordered Joshi’s name removed from the rolls of persons authorized to practice law.
