The Office of Chief Disciplinary Counsel of the State Bar of Texas ( OCDC)
Besides the crimes and misdemeanors that Attorney General Gonzales may have committed, there is also the obvious violations of the Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct that he has engaged in by his mendacity before the United States Congress. A "Grievance" is an allegation of Professional Misconduct by a lawyer. "Just Cause" means that a reasonable person ( and who is not reasonable?)believes that an attorney has committed an act of professional misconduct. Based on these Texas Bar Association definitions and the acts committed by Attorney General Gonzales, the OCDC should have launched an investigation months ago, but since the President of the Texas State Bar Association is from the same law firm from which sprang Ali G, I doubt if the OCDC will do anyhing until Ali G is convicted of a crime. Then they may spring into action.
