Disgraced Law Professor Resigns

Disgraced law professor Mark M. Hager, after being suspended by the District of Columbia bar for a year, at last has resigned his tenured job at American University's law school, the Washington Post reported in April . . . . In December the District of Columbia Court of Appeals found Hager "to have engaged in 'conflicts of interest, dishonesty' and 'improper conduct' when he represented two southern Virginia mothers who wanted to sue the makers of the lice-killing shampoo Nix. The court upheld the D.C. Bar's one-year suspension of Hager and further ordered him to disgorge the $225,000 fee he shared with co-counsel."
