Why in holy hell doesn't the ABA disbar Barr?

40. Each state has its own rules and procedures, so that's where the info would be.

The process for disciplining Barr would probably involve a filing a complaint with the attorney licensing agency in the appropriate jurisdiction (D.C., maybe Virginia) specifying the particular rules of professional conduct he's alleged to have violated. For example, from the DC rules:

It is professional misconduct for a lawyer to:

(a) Violate or attempt to violate the Rules of Professional Conduct, knowingly assist or induce another to do so, or do so through the acts of another;
(b) Commit a criminal act that reflects adversely on the lawyer’s honesty, trustworthiness, or fitness as a lawyer in other respects;
(c) Engage in conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation;
(d) Engage in conduct that seriously interferes with the administration of justice;
(e) State or imply an ability to influence improperly a government agency or official;
(f) Knowingly assist a judge or judicial officer in conduct that is a violation of applicable rules of judicial conduct or other law; or
(g) Seek or threaten to seek criminal charges or disciplinary charges solely to obtain an advantage in a civil matter.

Usually those complaints come from judges or other lawyers. In D.C., lawyers are required to report violations of the rules of professional conduct.

Rules of Professional Conduct: Rule 8.3--Reporting Professional Misconduct
(a) A lawyer who knows that another lawyer has committed a violation of the Rules of Professional Conduct that raises a substantial question as to that lawyer’s honesty, trustworthiness, or fitness as a lawyer in other respects, shall inform the appropriate professional authority.
