A Follow-Up On Transparency

Last Monday I posted a comment about the lack of transparency in the District of Columbia attorney disciplinary system.

Among other things, I noted that the link to information on upcoming hearings was woefully out of date.

The page noted no scheduled hearings notwithstanding the fact that hearings had been conducted that were never listed.

Well, I did not expect a thank-you note for bringing this sad fact to the attention of the powers that be.

I did, however, expect it to be fixed.

Now, a week later, the only listed case still is the one that took place last summer.

When the Court of Appeals issued a disciplinary order last Thursday in the Baber case, it was linked to the Bar’s decisions web page by the next day.

Why are there still no listed scheduled hearings?

Update: Sometime this afternoon, the page was updated and now lists seven secheduled hearings. (Mike Frisch)
