Please tell me that you're not soliciting on the web. If that's what you were doing in your posts, then that's probably part of the reason your posts were deleted. Advertising oneself is frowned on here, as is posting anything alerting anyone to where ritual secrets might be found. Thats to say nothing of the questionable ethics or tackiness of it.

Your own posts aren't exactly great examples of professionalism or courteousness either. If you want to be treated courteously, treat others courteously.

Good day young lad
Seriously? You say you come here to offer your legal services and you don't think taking some care in how you write matters? I don't think that's going to work out too well for you.

Just so you know, there are quite a few lawyers on GreekChat. I am one.

Mysticcat you are a lawyer right? Could you tell me what does it mean when a lawyer's state bar lists them as suspended? Did they do something bad?

At least where I practice, it means that they can't practice law during the time of the suspension.

And I would say yes, as a general rule, it means that they did something they shouldn't have done.

Is that the exact language? There are generally 4 statuses available for a law license. Active, which means you're going to your CLE classes, paying dues, etc., inactive, which is what Barack Obama's license is since he doesn't intend to practice law in Illinois anytime soon, that's a voluntary status which means you no longer have to take CLE or pay dues. Suspended is something that happens involuntarily. It can be from not doing CLE or paying dues, or because of professional sanctions. Finally, you can be disbarred, which is permanently (or until further application) not allowed to practice law.

Suspended can also be the result of a deal -- lawyer agrees to suspension to forgo a hearing and the chance of disbarment. Kind of a plea deal.

In my experience at least, suspensions for CLE deficits and failure to pay bar dues are rare, because those things are easy to rectify. More often, a suspension is the result of a first time, serious ethics violation.

Lawyers can also receive censures, which are essentially warnings that don't affect licensure status.

You asked if there was any recourse, so yes, it really made me feel so much better about myself to explain that you don't have any first amendment rights to post on Greek Chat. Great lawyering.

Right before this guy posted, another one posted links to secrets as Outraged SAE. Then it disappeared and this guy showed up, only he's posting as a Sig Tau.

Genius. I wonder if Outraged SAE could have provided pro bono legal services, too?

Thanks for the info.

Like I was saying...

Wow, you guys really have no life, and this obviously bothered you since some of you have posted like 6 times. The real world cant hear you. If you think this is real life, then you have another thing coming. Stop hiding behind the computer and talk to someone. I am not a sae or a Stg I am with kappa alpha order and my motto is transparency. Enjoy your lives on this forum hanging up on people and stop trying to live in the past like your still in the frat / sorority. They say it's for life but we all know the ones who are 50 And stay are the guys who the chapter are like get a life. You wouldn't understand. Enjoy your site and rediculus others.

THE REAL WORLD CAN'T HEAR YOU

I just realized that the online exam I thought was due tomorrow is due on the 18th, and I'm annoyed that I spent so much time on it tonight when I have other things to do, and that just made me laugh. Most appreciated.
