Duquesne Law Review
Abstract
The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania held that because of the "egregious" nature of the offense an attorney may not rely on purported "mitigating evidence" to avoid disbarment when he perpetrates a fraud on the judicial system by using an impersonator to orchestrate the conviction of one client to benefit another client.
