Zach Scruggs won’t fight suspension
Like his father, Dickie Scruggs, attorney Zach Scruggs has informed the Mississippi Supreme Court that he will not fight suspension of his law license.
Father and son, along with three others, have pleaded guilty to charges stemming from bribery of a North Mississippi judge. Their sentencing has not been scheduled in U.S. District Court in Oxford.
The Mississippi Bar filed a formal complaint requesting that they be suspended. When the Scruggses protested because their cases have not been finalized, the bar responded that it would request suspension if the Supreme Court thinks disbarment is premature.
