Attorney Jack Thomson has been disbarred from practicing law in the state of Florida.
Thomson will no longer be allowed to practice law in the state of Florida due to what Judge Dava Tunis described as Thomson “repeatedly stated…that he will not change his conduct” and that she “finds no evidence whatsoever to indicate that respondent is amenable to rehabilitation.”
Thomson has also been ordered to pay "recovery costs" of $43,675.35.
Thomson has thirty days to clear out any current cases before he will be disbarred.
Thomson has filed an emergency motion in clear defiance of court orders stating he could not take such action but a lawyer in good standing could. Thomson is claiming that the disbarment is a retaliation to his book "Out of Harms Way" in which he claim the Florida Supreme Court is acting in defense of the entertainment industry.
Thomson is most notable noted for attacking the video game industry. In particular he has made a target of Rock Star games makers of the "Grand Theft Auto" game series.
