Area Judges Suspend Johnson For One Year In Law Practice
A Frederick and Montgomery counties panel proposed a one year suspension from practicing law for former congressman Thomas F. Johnson. The Court of Appeals will decide. Johnson, a former U S House member from the Eastern Shore, has not practiced since 1962 when indicted for pay to drop charges against a savings and loan operator. He was convicted in 1963 and paroled in 1970 after four months of a six month term. The state bar sought disbarment, but judges argued the penalty was too severe for the misconduct and noted his nine year voluntary suspension. Johnson served 1958 to 1962 and lost reelection to Rogers C. Morton.
