The District of Columbia Bar initiated disciplinary proceedings against former interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin on March 10, accusing him of trying to coerce Georgetown Law School to end diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs.
Martin, who filled the U.S. Attorney role from January to May 2025 but was never confirmed, is accused of violating the D.C. Bar’s rules of professional conduct during his time in that role. If found to have committed misconduct, he could face disbarment, suspension of his legal license, or lesser sanctions.
