During the review process, the appellate court carefully examined the case’s claims, evidence, and procedural history. It focused on scrutinizing how the Commission for Lawyer Discipline presented evidence in its summary judgment response.
The court identified various discrepancies and shortcomings in the Commission’s submissions, such as mislabeled exhibits and a lack of specific citations supporting their claims.
In her written opinion for the court, Justice Dennise Garcia underscored the necessity of providing concrete and detailed evidence when asserting allegations in disciplinary matters.
“The Bar employed a ‘scattershot’ approach to the case, which left this court and the trial court ‘with the task of sorting through the argument to determine what issue ha[d] actually been raised,’” Justice Garcia wrote for the unanimous panel. “Having done so, the absence of competent summary judgment compels our conclusion that the Bar failed to meet its summary judgment burden.”
Wednesday’s ruling in Powell’s favor is a validation, yet the fight continues. Sidney Powell, a pro-Trump attorney, has agreed to a plea deal in the Georgia RICO case involving Trump to face lesser charges.
Dominion Voting has initiated a $1.3 billion lawsuit against Powell, who remains steadfast in her battle against allegations of election fraud.
