Description
Plaintiff appeals from the dismissal of his action to enjoin and declare invalid orders of the Supreme Court of the State
of Alaska suspending him from practice in the courts of that state for a period of one year. Language in Theard v. United States, 354 U.S. 278, 281, 77 S. Ct. 1274, 1 L. Ed. 2d 1342 (1957), and holdings in Gately v.
Sutton, 310 F.2d 107, 108 (10th Cir. 1962); Jones v. Hulse, 391 F.2d 198, 202 (8th Cir. 1968); and Lenske v. Sercombe, 266
F. Supp. 609, 612 (D.Ore.1967), support the rule that orders of a state court relating to the admission, discipline, and disbarment
of members of its bar may be reviewed only by the Supreme Court of the United States on certiorari to the state court, and
not by means of an original action in a lower federal court. The rule serves substantial policy interests arising from the
historic relationship between state judicial systems and the members of their respective bars, and between the state and federal
judicial systems. We are persuaded that it is sound. The judgment of the district court will therefore be affirmed.
