Nixon bar resignation blocked by California State Bar
Former President Richard Nixon faces continuation of a bar investigation after the State Bar urged the California Supreme Court to reject his resignation. The bar cites a two paragraph letter that fails to acknowledge ongoing disbarment proceedings, and notes that accepting resignation could reopen the probe if Nixon attempts to rejoin the bar.
