This crap can't be happening

It's like watching a really bad comedy. Mier's, as W's counsel, wasn't even licensed to practice in DC!!

Earlier this year, I received notice that my dues for the District of Columbia Bar were delinquent and as a result my ability to practice law in D.C. had been suspended. I immediately sent the dues in to remedy the delinquency. The nonpayment was not intentioned, and I corrected the situation upon receiving the letter.

OK, as one who also has to be licensed in DC to practice my trade -- they don't do such a good job of sending you the invoices when it is time to renew. Not that it's an excuse, but it makes it more understandable. I mean really, what part of DC goverment actual runs well?

True enough, but it's now come out that the same thing happened in Texas. As a Supreme Court justice, you have to be meticulous, to a fault.

From the WashPost:

She also wrote that "as a result of an administrative oversight," her Texas law license was suspended for 26 days in 1989 because of unpaid dues. On Monday, Miers disclosed that her D.C. law license was briefly suspended last year because of unpaid annual dues.
