Is there any case law where a judge has been found guilty of misconduct in writing and issuing insufficient funds on a personal account?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Segal v. State Bar, 245 Cal.Rptr. 404, 44 Cal.3d 1077, 751 P.2d 463 (Cal. 1988):

3. Segal wrote checks without sufficient funds to cover them and knew or should have known the account was insufficient. The conduct of issuing numerous checks with insufficient funds " 'manifests an abiding disregard of " 'the fundamental rule of ethics--that of common honesty--without which the profession is worse than valueless in the place it holds in the administration of justice' " [Citation.]' " (Bambic v. State Bar (1985) 40 Cal.3d 314, 324, 219 Cal.Rptr. 489, 707 P.2d 862, citing Tomlinson v. State Bar (1975) 13 Cal.3d 567, 577, 119 Cal.Rptr. 335, 531 P.2d 1119.)
