Zach Scruggs appeals disbarment
Attorney Zach Scruggs has followed the lead of his father, Dickie Scruggs, in asking the Mississippi Supreme Court to dismiss a formal complaint that seeks his disbarment.
The Mississippi Bar has asked the court to disbar both attorneys because they recently pleaded guilty to felonies in a judicial bribery case, but the Scruggses argue disbarment is premature.
Like his father’s motion, Zach Scruggs’ court pleading says the bar can’t file a formal complaint for disbarment unless U.S. District Court Judge Neal B. Biggers Jr. accepts his guilty plea.
