Wm. H. Morrow, Jr., Gen. Counsel for Alabama State Bar.
Marion Rushton and J. M. Williams, Jr., of Rushton, Stakely & Johnston, Montgomery, for appellee.
The Alabama State Bar, acting by and through its officers, appeals from a judgment prohibiting appellant from further prosecuting any charges against appellee for any official actions taken on his part as Judge of the Winston County Court of Law and Equity.
The Bar Association commenced proceedings against appellee to discipline or disbar him for acts done by him in his capacity as judge. In all material respects, the charges are the same as the charges brought against the judge in Alabama State Bar ex rel. Steiner v. Moore, 282 Ala. 562, 213 So.2d 404. In the instant case, the trial court expressed the opinion that what was said in Moore would apply here. We agree.
In Moore, this court said:
(282 Ala. at page 564, 213 So.2d at page 406)
On authority of Moore, the judgment here appealed from is affirmed.
Affirmed.
