Be Warned Sidney Powell Is Back & She’s Winning Things- It’ll Only Encourage Her

Just when you thought it was safe to leave the house

 

Sidney Powell has done it again.

The pro-Donald Trump attorney fended off the second challenge to her professional license on Friday, defeating an effort launched by the Texas Commission for Lawyer Discipline over her guilty pleas in the racketeering (RICO) case out of Fulton County, Georgia.

In October 2023, Powell exhausted efforts to have the charges against her dismissed at the trial court level. She eventually pleaded guilty to six misdemeanors based on her litigation to overturn the results of the 2020 election in the Peach State. The conservative lawyer, who is licensed in Texas, was subsequently sentenced to one year of probation — set to run consecutively, or, one after another — on each count of conspiracy to commit intentional interference with election administration.

In June 2024, the standing oversight committee, which is a segment of the State Bar of Texas, filed the charges against Powell — citing her six-year sentence on those misdemeanor counts and requesting “compulsory discipline.” Such discipline, under Lone Star State rules for attorneys, could have included suspension of Powell’s license through the term of her probation or even disbarment.
