Game Over? Court Recommends Permanent Disbarment of Jack Thompson
Could it be the beginning of the end for gaming’s loudest antagonist?

In a stunning finding released today by the Florida Bar Association, self-proclaimed anti-video game advocate Jack Thompson may be facing possible lifetime disbarment as has been recommended by a referee between the Bar Association and Thompson.

The recommendation comes after the Florida Bar filed for disbarment in Feb. 2007, citing allegations of professional misconduct. The 169 page file, which reads like a handout on jurist misconduct, details five distinct cases in which “thirty one violations of specified disciplinary rules and conduct occurring over a period of three and a half years.”

We contacted Mr. Thompson by phone, but he was unavailable to comment.
