that regulates attorneys in the state(s) where he's licensed. It wouldn't surprise me if this has already been done but I doubt it would go anywhere. There would have to be factual evidence of a violation of some specific rule of professional conduct.

Technically he resigned before he was disbarred, but his law license was suspended as a result of the action and he did not seek reinstatement.
