Gadon faces fourth disbarment case

MANILA, Philippines — A fourth disbarment case was filed yesterday against Lorenzo Gadon, the lawyer behind the impeachment complaint against Chief Justice Ma. Lourdes Sereno before the House of Representatives.

Jover Laurio, author of Pinoy Ako Blog, filed the case against Gadon before the Integrated Bar of the Philippines.

Laurio said Gadon allegedly hurled invectives and raised a dirty finger at supporters of Sereno during the oral arguments of the Supreme Court on the quo warranto petition against the chief magistrate in Baguio City on April 10.

“Gadon’s acts are conduct unbecoming of a lawyer and grossly immoral,” read the complaint filed by Laurio.
