In re Crawford, Rhonda, 2016PR00115
Disposition Interim suspension until further order of the Court
Effective Date of Disposition 10/31/2016
End Date of Disposition
Definition of Disposition An interim suspension reflects the determination of the Supreme Court that a lawyer should be suspended from the practice of law. In imposing interim suspension, the Court orders that the lawyer be suspended until further order of the Court and may impose such conditions as the Court deems necessary. The lawyer is not authorized to practice law during the period of the interim suspension. The Court may terminate the interim suspension upon imposition of final discipline or under other circumstances as the Supreme Court deems just.
Case Summary Ms. Crawford, who was licensed in 2003, was suspended on an interim basis and until further order of the Court. While a candidate for judicial office in Cook County, she donned a sitting judge’s robe during that judge’s court call, took the bench, and purported to preside over three cases on the call. In addition to the interim suspension, she was enjoined and restrained from taking the judicial oath of office or assuming the office of judge until further order of the Court.
