But Twin Galaxies' own lawyer, David Tashroudian, faced misconduct claims of his own after he improperly contacted two witnesses in the case โ€” prompting Superior Court Judge Wendy Chang, who's overseeing the case, to consider referring him to the State Bar for discipline.

I'm no lawyer, but this seems like small potatoes in comparison to Mitchell's actively fabricating evidence and lying under oath. Absolutely shameful that after years of litigation TG's case falls apart thanks to an idiot lawyer. Hope that lawyer gets paid nothing and Jobst's lawsuit goes better; Mitchell needs to see real consequences for the years of intimidation and lies.
