Cal. Business and Professions Code § 6106 : California Business And Professions Code — Professions And Vocations Generally — Attorneys — Disciplinary Authority Of The Courts — Commission of act involving moral turpitude, dishonesty, or corruption

Current through the 2016 Legislative Session

The commission of any act involving moral turpitude, dishonesty or corruption, whether the act is committed in the course of his relations as an attorney or otherwise, and whether the act is a felony or misdemeanor or not, constitutes a cause for disbarment or suspension.

If the act constitutes a felony or misdemeanor, conviction thereof in a criminal proceeding is not a condition precedent to disbarment or suspension from practice therefor.
