Devin Nunes is suing CNN for defamation and his legal brief is SO BAD.

[Ms. Toad]

25. This attorney likely did.

Among other things, his license was suspended for a year, beginning January 1, 2009: https://www.vsb.org/docs/Biss_11-26-08.final.pdf

His license was suspended an additional month on 10/2/2009 for continuing to practice law while under suspension. https://www.vsb.org/docs/Biss_11-05-09.pdf

Fresh off suspension, on 10/18/2010 he was given a public reprimand https://www.vsb.org/docs/Biss-101910.pdf

So - if he knows the law as well as he knows the rules of professional conduct, it's likely he wrote it.

(Same attorney who wrote the complaint against the twitter accounts. He asserted torts he cannot possibly prove against the two accounts: Neglgent infliction of emotional distress. In Virginia, as in most jurisdiction, pure emotional harm is not sufficient to create liablity for NIED. It requires bodily injury or damage to personal property . . . so unless it caused him such distress that he's having PTSD, or shock or another ailment that counts for bodily injury, that claim is toast. I used it as "ripped from the headlines - are you smarter than a practicing attorney" quiz for my students preparing for the bar exam. The last couple of years have been a goldmine for that.)
