David Ralston, Unethical Lawyer? Or Incompetent Human Being? Or, BOTH?
by PV
Rumors have it that along with being a POS of a human being that Speaker of the Georgia House David Ralston is, he may actually be demonstrably incompetent in how he conducts his law practice.
PV Provides a Brief Background: In case you have not seen the stories published by the Atlanta Journal & Constitution & broadcasts on WSB-TV about how Ralston has used his legislative position to purposely delay criminal court trials on behalf of his clients (the majority of whom appear to have a penchant for abusing/molesting children under the age of 10, and/or abusing/beating-up women), here is a short list to catch-up on the news:
February 26, 2019 WSB-TV Broadcast story
Now, of keen interest to PV was the information contained in the 2/26/2019 WSB online story because it was there that we found a link to PDF-compiled copies of all of the letters David Ralston had sent to judges claiming he could not make a calendar call or show-up for the first day of trial, etc.  That link is to this PDF of 46 pages.
Annnnnd…what is significant enough about some of these documents to warrant this Alert? Well, pay particular attention to any letters sent by Ralston dated after January of 2018. In fact, here they shall be listed:
February 6, 2018 to Judge Weaver
March 6, 2018 to Judge Weaver
March 26, 2018 to Judge George
March 30, 2018 to Judge Gunter
June 7, 2018 to Judge Weaver
June 26, 2018 to Judge Gunter
July 16, 2018 to Judge Weaver
August 20, 2018 to Judge Weaver
August 23, 2018Â to Judge Weaver
August 31, 2018Â to Judge Priest
September 4, 2018Â to Judge Weaver
September 18, 2018 to Judge George
October 11, 2018 to Judge George
October 18, 2018 to Judge George
October 23, 2018 to Judge George
November 5, 2018 to Judge Gunter
November 21, 2018 to Judge Priest
Note there are 17 different letters that Attorney David E. Ralston sent to judges that occurredafter January 2018. What is the significance of January 2018? Well, according to Ralston’s law partner (seen to the right of Ralston’s name on the letterhead of each of these 17 letters) Clint G. Bearden’s personal website, Clint Bearden was appointed to be a Superior Court Judge on the Northeastern Judicial Circuit in January of 2018.
And yet, Bearden’s name remained/remains ON David Ralston’s letterhead long after Bearden supposedly was sworn-in and took a seat on the bench. This brings to mind several questions of importance:
1) Is Clint Bearden still practicing law with David Ralston while serving as a Superior Court Judge?
2) Is David Ralston so incompetent of a lawyer that he does not know how to remove Bearden’s name from his letterhead? You know…get new letterhead PRINTED that does not have Bearden’s name on it?
3) Is David Ralston so much of a LAZY POS that he is unable to stop stuffing his face at Bada-Bing’s for a moment to, you know, take care of his law office to file paperwork to change who he is partnered with?
These are just a few questions that someone should discover the answers to because, while PV is not an attorney, we seem to recall some prohibitions regarding judges practicing law while sitting on a bench…
