That followed by this Republican stepping down after a sex scandal:

Just trying to make an honest buck -

Barratry is most commonly applied to an attorney who attempts to bring about a lawsuit that will be profitable to her or him. Barratry is an offense both at Common Law and under some state statutes. The broader common-law crime has been limited by certain statutes. An attorney who is overly officious in instigating or encouraging prosecution of groundless litigation might be guilty of common barratry under a particular statute. The requirement for the crime of barratry is that repeated or persistent acts of litigation are performed by the accused. Barratry is generally a misdemeanor punishable by fine or imprisonment. In the case of an attorney, disbarment is the usual punishment. Since few cases have been prosecuted, barratry is considered by the legal community at large to be an archaic crime. This is particularly true today due to a highly litigious atmosphere.

A Black DemoRat

Filed lawsuits for people he didn’t represent! I have to hand it to Black crooks, they are “creative!” This guy is right up there with the Black lawya in North Carolina whose billboard ads said “just because you did it, doesn’t mean you’re guilty!”

Barratry: “Barratry is most commonly applied to an attorney who attempts to bring about a lawsuit that will be profitable to her or him.”

That definition would cover all Democrats, so why is this guy different?

Great/s
Texas lawmakers meet for 90 days every two years.
I predict bathroom laws, plastic grocery bags and saving mother Erf will be on their plates.
