Lawyers Defending American Democracy (LDAD) has again filed supplemental complaints against the attorney to former President Donald J. Trump, following Mr. Chesebro’s guilty plea in Fulton County Superior Court on October 20, 2023.

As LDAD described to the state bar disciplinary authorities in both states, the conduct that Mr. Chesebro has now admitted – conspiracy to file a false election certificate – requires his disbarment under the law of both states, notwithstanding assertions by his defense counsel that he will be able to retain his law license.

The reasons that disbarment is appropriate differ in each state, and LDAD has provided a detailed analysis of the law in New York and California that supports disbarment.
