Citator

Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code § 6106 — Disciplinary Authority of the Courts is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

The commission of any act involving moral turpitude, dishonesty or corruption, whether the act is committed in the course of his relations as an attorney or otherwise, and whether the act is a felony or misdemeanor or not, constitutes a cause for disbarment or suspension.

If the act constitutes a felony or misdemeanor, conviction thereof in a criminal proceeding is not a condition precedent to disbarment or suspension from practice therefor.
