Six-month suspension proposed for ex-Ohio AG
TweetSix-month suspension proposed for ex-Ohio AG
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A proposal would suspend the law license of former Ohio Attorney General Marc Dann for six months but allow him to keep practicing law during that time anyway.
Dann, ousted in a scandal three years, agreed to the punishment with lawyers representing the disciplinary wing of the Ohio Supreme Court.
Dann testifies at a disciplinary hearing Thursday. A court board and the Supreme Court itself could accept or reject the recommended punishment.
Dann, a Democrat, resigned in 2008 amidst a sexual harassment scandal, then pleaded guilty in 2010 to improperly paying two aides from political and office accounts and failing to disclose campaign expenses.
Dann’s attorney Alvin Mathews said Tuesday he’s pleased the court’s Disciplinary Counsel agreed to the recommended punishment.

"A proposal would suspend the law license of former Ohio Attorney General Marc Dann for six months but allow him to keep practicing law during that time anyway."
So, it is but it isn't . . ..
So if I ever had my driver's license suspended for 6 months......I would still be permitted to drive a car?
So if my doctor had his license suspended....he could still see patients and prescribe medicine?
Barber?
Beautician?
Nurse?
Insurance Agent?
Stock Broker?
All of these professions require valid licenses, and any suspensions prevent them from practicing their profession while the suspension is in effect
Only in the legal profession.....
For a side of the Dann story that the Vindicator and the rest of the mainstream Ohio media didn't tell, see

Many Ohio reporters and editors should be thankful they don't need a license, because it surely would have been yanked based on the gross incompetence and cowardice they displayed in handling that story.
Cindy is looking mighty fine in those pictures . So this proves that Gutierrez was not trying to take her for a test drive ? Gutierrez and Dann were both slimeballs . . . ..
