State Bar of Texas Holds Ethics Seminar for Local Lawyers

Perhaps, as a result of the obvious widespread corruption among local lawyers and judges revealed during the Abel Limas, Ray Marchan and Mark Rosenthall trials, the State Bar of Texas is conducting a 3 hour seminar for local lawyers on ethics at the courthouse.

The President of the State Bar is here in Brownsville, along with representatives from the Disciplinary Board.

Participation seems to be voluntary, but many local lawyers are eager to demonstrate their interest in the pursuit of ethics.

  1. Too little to late for local attorneys. Like closing the gates when the horses are gone. Local attoney's don't know what "ethics" are and a 3 hour lesson is insufficient. It is a rube....to give the impression things will be better....they won't. Local attorneys are part of the culture of corruption in this community. They will probably laugh off this seminar.

      My, my. An entire comment thrown out like confetti. Where to start: It's "Too little too late for local attorneys." And "local attorneys don't know what ethics are and a 3-hour lesson is insufficient." And "It is a ruse..." And "They will probably laugh-off this seminar." Grade: F, the mark of a Loser.

  2. Has the State Bar been in a coma for the last 2 decades. It is too little, too late for the State Bar to wake up and try to change the culture of the legal profession in Cameron County. All the lawyer jokes we have seen over the years surely apply to lawyers here. Obviously lawyers are not confident in their ability to make a living without corruption or withour an "edge" so they resort to unethical practices. Here horse thieves and lawyers are part of the same club and "ethics" is just a word, not a practice.

      That should be: "I've got your comma right here!" But, as always, Pachuquitos will be estupidos. Ya hacks!

  4. Having a class on "ethics" for Cameron County attorneys is like having a class on chastity in whore house.

    Ratas, they perform marriages, donate our land that is not theirs, hire their relatives.

    Why are we not rebelling?

  6. So, these lawyers need a class to know it is not OK 1) to take and pay bribes to judges and witnesses, 2) to "fix" cases, 3) to let a murderer go free and then take his large cash bond? Obviously, these are things that should be known without a class particularly by people with legal training. The notion of the bar teaching ethics particularly the crooked lawyers in the Chief Disciplinary Counsel's Office is just ludicrous. They support fabricated of evidence, concealment of crime, fraudulent theft of children, fabrication of law, conflict of interest, ex parte hearings, and generally lying. This would be James Ehler and Marie Haspil.
