DETROIT – Lawyers Defending American Democracy (LDAD) today sent a complaint to the Michigan Supreme Court’s Attorney Grievance Commission (AGC) calling for the immediate investigation of Michigan attorney Stefanie Lambert. The complaint urges the AGC to conduct an investigation into a pattern of unethical and illegal efforts by Lambert to undermine confidence in critical election infrastructure and to impose discipline for those violations.
“Stefanie Lambert’s many false representations and repeated violations of court orders demonstrate a complete disregard for the rule of law and the ethics code of conduct that she swore to uphold,” said Scott Harshbarger, chair of Lawyers Defending American Democracy and a former Massachusetts Attorney General. “She has knowingly, willfully, and continuously violated her oath to uphold the law in multiple jurisdictions over the last few years—and shows no signs of stopping.”
The complaint, signed by 24 legal and ethics experts, meticulously lays out the following case:
"Attorneys are officers of the court, bound by oath to uphold the rule of law and the professional and ethical standards that are the foundation of our judicial system,” said Bruce Kuhlik, a former Assistant to the US Solicitor General and an author of the LDAD complaint, “Anyone actively and intentionally seeking to destabilize that bedrock must be held accountable.”
