High Court voids disbarment provisions in State Bar Act
The Arizona Supreme Court ruled that the State Bar Act title did not match its body, making disciplinary and disbarment rules unconstitutional. The 1933 act created the State Bar of Arizona as a public corporation with a governors board and committees, but the court said disbarment procedures were not covered by the title. Pending amendment, disbarments must follow general Arizona law. The ruling affects two Phoenix attorneys Herman Lewkowitz and Raymond Wein, whose cases were dismissed, with directions to initiate new proceedings under other statutes.
