How not to practice law: represent yourself in a disciplinary hearing when you have faced discipline four times in the past

I found this headline at the Legal Profession blog very interesting:  "Self-Representation In Bar Discipline Case Is Evidence Of Incompetence."  Go here for the full story.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court ended up disbarring the attorney stating that the fact the lawyer has had so many disciplinary problems "indicate[s] a failure to grasp or adhere to the standards that are required of attorneys practicing in this state and a lack of remorse for his prior ethical violations" and that his self-representation knowing his license was at stake was essentially incompetent.
