Attorney David Morehead of White Hall, AR; dimwit, serial offender

The state of North Arkansas provided David Franklyn Morehead with a law license in 1989 after he graduated from the University of Arkansas Law School.

The Committee on Professional Conduct found Davey guilty of the following misconduct.

FYI: This isn’t Davey’s First bite at the Attorney Misfit Apple Tree. He previously received two complimentary admonitions for engaging in a variety of misconduct.
