First off, the biggest a$$-kissing media refers to Michelle Obama as a 'distinguished attorney" despite the fact that Michelle Obama has been"inactive" since 1993. Click here: ARDC | Lawyer Search
ARDC - Attorney Registration & Disciplinary Commission of the Supreme Court of Illinois !
Click to enlarge image. Everyday another Obama skeleton comes careening out of the closet.
This ADRC is for discipline reasons...not for those volunteering to stop practicing. It is COURT ORDERED...not "Michelle Obama ordered." Their website is very clear about their function and why they step in. (see below)
If this was a Republican, the Democrooks would have her up on charges already.
Schmoo, an attorney, points out, "sounds more to me like she was drummed right out of the practice of law. I am just dying to know what she did... she ran to have a court ordered inactive status done...and then no malpractice report needed to be provided.
She wanted this to 'go away" fast and furious and the details not come out in depositions, courtroom documents, rulings for the client/plaintiffs...etc..
I would love to know what she did. I believe barack obummer himself was also disciplined--I know his law license is on "inactive" he lied about ever going by any other names when he applied for bar application. He also failed to state any prior drug use...(which he admitted in his books...and he had outstanding tickets that were never paid)."
Michelle Obama on court ordered inactive status with the Illinois State Attorney hat tip schmoopett
huh?
Michelle Obama is on COURT ORDERED INACTIVE STATUS--order said since she has been placed INACTIVE that "no malpractice record required."
WHAT DID SHE DO THAT in 1993 -- AFTER only 4 YEARS -- HER LICENSE to PRACTICE LAW WAS REVIEWED AND PUT ON INACTIVE by a DISCIPLINARY AGENCY?
What Is the ARDC? (this is NOT the Illinois Bar-where one can voluntarily be inactive) As our name implies, the ARDC is the agency of the Supreme Court of Illinois which registers attorneys and investigates complaints of misconduct filed against attorneys holding a license to practice law in Illinois.
Our principal purpose is to assist the Supreme Court to determine a lawyer's fitness to practice law in Illinois. If a complaint is made that an attorney, licensed to practice law in Illinois, has engaged in illegal, unethical or dishonest conduct, we will investigate and, if warranted, bring formal disciplinary charges. The Supreme Court of Illinois will then ultimately decide if a lawyer should be censured (publicly rebuked), suspended (having the law license to practice either taken away for a certain period of time or placed on a probationary period) or disbarred (having the law license taken away indefinitely).
We cannot impose fines, imprison, obtain monetary damages, enforce remedies between the lawyer and client, or seek civil or criminal relief against a lawyer as part of the disciplinary process. We can affect only the lawyer's ability to practice law in Illinois.
We are not funded by taxpayers' money. We are funded entirely by the annual registration fees paid by attorneys authorized to practice law in Illinois.
What Is a Request for an Investigation of an Attorney?
It is a request to us that we look into the conduct of an attorney who you believe has acted improperly. We will review your request to determine if an investigation is warranted. In most cases, we will initiate an investigation where the information you provide us suggests that the attorney engaged in illegal, dishonest or unethical conduct. Filing a request accusing an attorney of unethical conduct is a serious matter to the lawyer. We recommend that, whenever practical, you try to resolve any differences or disputes that do not concern claims of unethical conduct directly with the lawyer.
How Do I Request an Investigation of an Attorney?
By mailing to our office, either in Chicago or Springfield, a request that you want an attorney to be investigated by our office. Your request should be in writing. No special form is necessary. For your convenience, you may download a Request for Investigation form. Please return the Request by postal mail or hand-delivery. The ARDC does not accept an e-mail transmission of a Request for Investigation.
UPDATE: Scmoo the attorney adds:
..as an attorney I am telling you that people can "choose" to not pay their registration fees or take their continuing education of the bar and therefore go on "suspension...or inactive status that goes thru the CAL BAR--the California Bar association
UPDATE: What was little Michelle from the Southside of Chicago doing in 1993?
1993: Public Allies Chicago with 30 Allies is launched by founding Executive Director Michelle Obama. President Clinton names Public Allies a model for national service. First Lady Hilary Clinton hosts Rose Garden reception for Public Allies at the White House. Say what? Michelle and Hillary go back that far?
Shmoo finds more:
In 1992 Michelle Obama left her job at Sidley Austin to launch a career in public service, serving as an assistant to Mayor Daley and then as the assistant commissioner of planning and development for the City of Chicago. (ask yourself how did a 2-3 year attorney...just wound up being Mayor Daleys "assistant" just like that...and what did she do as an "assistant" what does that even mean when you are a harvard trained attorney?)
Too close for comfort. Coincidental?
Bernardine Dohrn, Bill Ayers wife was at Sidley Austin--- a law firm in Chicago from From 1984 to 1988. Dohrn was employed by the law firm Sidley Austin although her criminal record has prevented her from being admitted to either the New York or Illinois bar. (source: wikipedia)
This is hugh.
Yes, a very slimy, stinking, soft, rotting onion!
A tale from the moral and ethical SWAMP from which the next POTUS was dredged.
If Obama came out of this miasma untainted by and unaware of the level of rot therein, he is too stupid to hold the office of dogcatcher.
But he’s NOT stupid, you say? In fact, he’s VERY BRIGHT and articulate, you insist??
Thank you for making my point far better than I could ever hope to.
We are in VERY, VERY DEEP DOO-DOO as the next few months and years will assuredly reveal for all but the most ignorant to see.

There’s enough weirdness surrounding the Obamas without making a “scandal” out of this, which was first brought up last summer.
As I recall, Michelle’s license is “inactive” simply because it was not renewed. It can be renewed at any time with the appropriate paperwork and by paying a fee.
“It’s like peeling an onion.”
Brah, I believe you mean an acorn.
Paging investigative reporters.....

Please read the article: This is the agency that TAKES AWAY your license. The Illinois Bar Association would be the organization involved if she just let her license lapse.
Pretty much what has been agreed with, on the handful of threads already posted on this “topic” today....
Public Allies was the precursor for establishment of Camp Obamas - they claim that their program enrollees are ‘much more likely to demonstrate’ (rabblerouse) for ‘rights’ (pieces of our pie).
Obama was originally director, stepping aside in 1993 for his wife, Michelle, to take over as director, with a namechange to Public Allies.
The Obamas have a penchant for non-profits - in fact, the created phantom Office of President-Elect is yet another nonprofit - it would be interesting to discover how much Obummer and goons are being paid by the “nonprofit” OPE on top of any other salary they are drawing from other sources, and how much Obama was paid as a ‘consultant’ to Public Allies on top of his state senate salary.

Paging investigative reporters.....
LOL at the media investigating anything LOL. Perhaps they should send those reporters from Alaska back to Chicago to find some REAL dirt. The Obama’s are as slimy as they come
law ping
Public Record of Discipline and Pending Proceedings: None
Just as there's no "public record" of her husband's birth certificate, school transcripts, state senate votes, financial dealings, etc, etc.. See a pattern there, x?
I’ll be comfortable after Obama conducts an inquiry and lets me know that everything is OK.
I don’t have the link, but how about his license? Does that show up on the same site?
At least $8,000 a night.
Excellent!
Usually, affirmative action lawyers like Michelle Obama can only seem to pass the bar in the District of Columbia. Maybe she got caught trying to practice law in Illinois without passing the bar.
