The Attorney Discipline section of the U.S. Supreme Court's regular Monday orders list is not often interesting.  Mostly it's lawyers who have been disbarred by their home state courts getting routinely booted by SCOTUS as well, and that is rarely newsworthy.  But see In re Clinton, 534 U.S. 1016 (2001).

Today's list has an interesting item, though.  The Court ordered a lawyer who had submitted an unintelligible petition to show cause why he should not be disciplined.  Today they let him off with a finger wag.

A response having been filed, the Order to Show Cause, dated December 8, 2014, is discharged. All Members of the Bar are reminded, however, that they are responsible--as Officers of the Court--for compliance with the requirement of Supreme Court Rule 14.3 that petitions for certiorari be stated "in plain terms," and may not delegate that responsibility to the client.
