THE MISSISSIPPI BAR v. COLLINS

No. 2012-BD-02048-SCT.

119 So.3d 1039 (2013)

THE MISSISSIPPI BAR v. Jimmie L. COLLINS.

Supreme Court of Mississippi.

August 15, 2013.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

James R. Clark , Jackson, attorney for appellant.

Jimmie L. Collins, appellee, pro se.

EN BANC.

DICKINSON, Presiding Justice, for the Court:

¶ 1. The Mississippi Bar filed a Formal Complaint seeking to disbar Jimmie Collins due to a 1989 felony conviction. But, because disbarring an attorney approximately twenty-four years after his conviction and thirteen years after the Mississippi Bar restored him from inactive to active status, fails to serve the purposes of the Rules of Discipline, we deny the Bar's request for disbarment.
