201 N.W. 949 | Minn. | 1925
We have carefully examined the evidence presented in connection with the present application and also that presented in the original proceeding, and we regret to say that we are firmly convinced that the original disbarment was amply justified, and that the petitioner's subsequent conduct shows that he is not a fit person to be reinstated as a member of the bar of this state. The petition is denied.
In the original proceeding, the court determined that the petitioner be removed from his office of attorney at law, and directed that a formal judgment of disbarment be entered. An examination of the record discloses that this formal judgment has not been entered. This omission does not affect the validity of the judgment as declared by the court. 15 R.C.L. 571, 581, §§ 5, 16. The clerk will now enter a formal judgment as of July 25, 1913, the date on which the judgment was declared, and will refer to this order as authority therefor.
