The Texas agency responsible for regulating the legal profession has asked a judge to impose disciplinary measures against attorney Sidney Powell, the Republican litigator and conspiracy theorist who pushed to overturn former president Donald Trump’s 2020 election loss to Joe Biden.
According to court documents released on Tuesday, the Texas state bar Commission for Lawyer Discipline accused Ms Powell of “professional misconduct” in violation of five separate violations of the Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct.
