State Bar Slaps Gage With Petition

In a stunning display of intestinal fortitude, the State Bar filed a petition with our Supremes seeking to suspend Noel Gage's law license. From the RJ:
If previous disciplinary procedures are an indication, Gage could be disallowed from the practice of law for more than a year as the investigation unfolds.

The Nevada Supreme Court generally approves such recommendations.
We happened to get our sweaty little palms on a copy of the petition (Part 1; Part 2). To be honest, tl;dr.

We did, however, find one interesting document during our skim. It appears that criminal defense heavyweight William Terry may be representing Gage in his proceedings. (Bill's reputation is much better than his website). If that's true, we hope bar counsel Rob Bare is ready to rumble.

If you find yourself a little heavy on the billables today, take a look at the petition an tell us if you find anything interesting.

(LVRJ; Thanks, Tipsters!)

UPDATE:
Our apologies to those of you who were offended by our previous accompanying photograph. Our mandatory 12 hours of blogger sensitivity training taught us that photographs of domestic violence, even from old black and white movies, are not acceptable.

Thanks for the information, but the photograph is not your best choice.

I agree about the photo. What does the story have to do with a woman who wouldn't listen?

Let's not lose focus people. Gage may actually get what has been coming for a long time.

Noel Gage - you can't stop him; you can only hope to contain him.

Gage is 72, do you really think he cares if the State Bar yanks his ticket?

@10:45 I think that is the Most Interesting Man in the World you are referring to. Noel Gage is not nearly that sweet.

Don't forget about Jorge Sanchez. The Nevada Supreme Court recently temporarily suspended his license.

I've dealt with him in BK court and this does not shock me at all.

I,too, am confused by the photo accompanying the story. I thought Tre'von Williams was black.

Don't forget that Tre also likes to choke a bitch.

One year? Let's hear it for the State Bar for almost growing a pair.
