Lawyer Disbarred for Misconduct — as a Juror

The California Supreme Court on Wednesday officially disbarred San Francisco solo Francis Fahy for changing his vote while on a jury for a medical malpractice trial. It turns out that Fahy wanted to break the deadlock so he could get back to his law practice -- something he eventually admitted in a signed declaration. He's believed to be the first California lawyer to be disbarred for misbehaving as a juror.
