The disbarred octogenarian super lawyer was ordered Monday to undergo a mental health evaluation. But there was more to pay attention to if you knew who was in the gallery.
The California State Bar has disclosed in November that it had received 136 complaints about Girardi between August 1982 and before the scandal erupted in December 2020, most involving client trust accounts, but the statute of limitations for federal wire fraud charges is 10 years.
NOTE: In 2001 the Late Karen S. Nobumoto was elected President of the State Bar of California and VOWED to clean up the protect society and began prosecuting legal document preparers, legal assistants, and paralegals---In fact, District Attorney Steve Cooley called Nobumoto an outstanding asset to his department, and he makes it clear that the two of them think alike when it comes to prosecuting unauthorized practice of law.
Meanwhile attorneys such as Giradi were allowed to PREY ON THE COMMUNITY. The actions and inactions of the former (deceased) State Bar President were self-severing.
