The Florida Bar's review of attorney ethics is a joke.
A letter to Chief Justice Jorge Labarga of the Florida Supreme Court
A letter to the Chief Judge of the Florida Supreme Court asking questions about the Florida Bar complaint procedures against lawyers who appear to act improperly. Like many other states, Florida appears to have procedures in place that protect lawyers and judges who have acted improperly. Damn the Public? The Complaint against an Attorney was included in the letter than was sent to the Chief Justice. I wonder how many letters actually explain what is required to be successful when filing a complaint?
Because so few prosecutors are sanctioned, they lie, omit evidence, and violate rules without any consequences. This is a complaint against a lawyer who works for one of the Florida Supreme Court Agencies. (The Florida Board of Bar Examiners) The Bar refused to investigate even though I requested they review the first request. They also denied the second request. In my opinion, there were violations of Florida Rules by this lawyer but since he is higher up on the legal profession - he is a protected person. It is a little like the MAFIA - lawyers may become made men. Robert Blythe violate several rules of Professional conduct and the Florida Bar and Florida Supreme Court did nothing. Ask the Chief Justice, Jorge Labarga why he allowed this to happen on his watch. The Florida Board lost papers and then accused me of not submitting them. They allowed non-lawyers to make discovery decisions; Non-lawyers signed papers with legal determinations; lawyers either lacked due diligence, ethics, or purposely omitted papers. Charges were submitted that were contradicted by a transcript - and instead, the Florida Board used a false certification by a New Jersey judge. (Thomas Zampino)

This study, commissioned by the European Parliament’s Policy Department for Citizens’ Rights and Constitutional Affairs at the request of the JURI Committee, analyses legal definitions of Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation (SLAPP) and assesses the compatibility of anti-SLAPP legislation with EU law. It is recommended that an anti-SLAPP Directive should be adopted, and that the Brussels Ia Regulation and Rome II Regulation should be recast to limit the incidence of SLAPPs.
Analysis of potential amendments to the Rome II Regulation in respect of the law applicable to human-rights-related torts (including the law applicable to SLAPP)
