Lawyer Who ‘Won’t Take No for an Answer’ is Suspended for Two Years

By on January 6, 2019 in Litigation-Business, Litigation-Personal

Former Pennsylvania state Rep. Tom Gannon has been suspended from practicing law in the state for two years due to multiple rules violations incurred while representing a client in a condominium association action, reports the Delaware County Daily Times.

Friday’s state Supreme Court order indicates Gannon persisted in filing a total 46 appeals in the state court system in a small civil dispute for a client, despite multiple denials, admonitions from the court, and even disqualification orders that should have removed him from the case entirely.

“Nevertheless, (Gannon) continued his pattern and practice of frivolous filings and appeals on behalf of Mr. King, despite the fact that doing so was in contravention of court orders,” according to the order.
