California Supreme Court Justice Barr John Eastman, the lawyer who cooked up a plan to help Donald Trump flip the 2020 election results. They struck his name from the state attorney role on Wednesday, ending his right to practice law there. This wraps up a years long push by the state bar, triggered by Eastman's strategy to get then... Vice President Mike Pence to block certifying Joe. Biden's win. Eastman claims he's just getting hit for honest legal advice, but the Barr says his actions broke every rule of attorney integrity. The guy is 65. Join the Barr back in 1997, clerked for Justice Clarence Thomas, and even ran for California Attorney General. In 2010, coming in second in the Republican primary, a state bar judge recommended the disbarman last year, and now Eastman's team is crying first amendment foul, planning to appeal straight to the U.S. Supreme Court. That says to stage for more legal battles ahead, with big questions about lawyers and election challenges still hanging in the air. From your city, powered by AI, this is California News Today.
