Yes indeedy. (http://kotaku.com/5013148/jack-thompson-walks-out-on-hearing-court-recommends-enhanced-disbarment)

The Florida Bar asked for an "enhanced disbarment" in the disciplinary hearing of Jack Thompson (http://kotaku.com/tag/jack-thompson/), held earlier this afternoon. The recommendation means Thompson would be disbarred and prohibited from applying to practice law again for ten years, according to 11th Judicial Circuit of Florida spokesperson Eunice Sigler.
Thompson's disciplinary hearing apparently ended in the attorney walking out of the courtroom after saying the judge did not have the authority to hear his case, a reader who sat in on the hearing told us.
They have the full text of Jacko's complaint to the court, and I've only read part of it, but of that part my favorite comment is:

English is the greatest of all languages. It allows its users to be very precise.
Yes Jack, and you used it very precisely to piss off the entire judiciary, didn't you?

If only there were a longer thread about this, that had perhaps been posted in only minutes before this one was created.

Indeed. If only. . .

Are we still getting our news from Kotaku after Tom's scathing expose?

Tsk, tsk.
