Former U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) attorney Jeffrey Clark faces possible disbarment as he goes to trial with the District of Columbia Bar’s Office of Disciplinary Counsel on March 26.

That office charged him in 2022 with violating his professional ethics after Mr. Clark, then acting assistant attorney general for the DOJ’s Civil Division, drafted a “Proof of Concept” letter at the behest of former President Donald Trump that urged top state officials in Georgia to investigate alleged election fraud.
