Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance seeks suspension of Judge DeLaughter

Here's a copy of the Commission's petition to the Mississippi Supreme Court. This comes from ethics complaints filed against DeLaughter by attorneys for William Roberts Wilson in the fee dispute case against Dickie Scruggs. Joey Langston, who represented Scruggs in the later stages of that investigation, has pleaded guilty to conspiracy to influence DeLaughter with the offer of a federal judgeship. I'll update later. UPDATE: Here's an AP story on this from Mike Kunzelman, here's one from Jerry Mitchell of the Clarion-Ledger.
