Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill's License Suspended Over Sexual Misconduct Claims




https://www.courthousenews.com/indiana-attorney-generals-license-suspended-over-sexual-misconduct-claims/

NDIANAPOLIS (CN) – The Indiana Supreme Court on Monday suspended the law license of Republican Attorney General Curtis Hill for 30 days after finding he committed acts of battery against several women.

The 19-page disciplinary ruling finds credible the accusations from four women who claimed that Hill touched and grouped them during a holiday party in 2018. The court handed down a 30-day suspension during which the attorney general cannot undertake any new legal proceedings.

“We find, as did the hearing officer, that respondent committed acts of misdemeanor battery, conduct that under the circumstances of this case violated Indiana Professional Conduct Rules 8.4(b) and 8.4(d),” the ruling states. “For respondent’s professional misconduct, the court suspends respondent from the practice of law in this state for a period of 30 days, beginning May 18, 2020.”
