| Summary of the Facts: | The Mississippi Bar has filed a formal complaint against attorney William Montgomery who was disbarred by the State Bar of Texas from the practice of law in that state. The Bar attached the Texas court's certified disbarment judgment and its findings of fact and conclusions of law to its complaint. |
