What ethics rules did the attorney violate would it make a


A lawyer filed a complaint with a court that was so badly drafted that after giving the lawyer an additional opportunity to correct and refile it, the court dismissed the complaint with prejudice (meaning that the complaint cannot be revised and refiled). One sentence in the complaint contained 345 words, and more than 20 other sentences contained over 100 words and were unintelligible. On appeal, the appellate court affirmed dismissal of the complaint with prejudice, issued an order to show cause to the attorney instructing him to explain to the court why he should not be barred from practicing law before the court, and directed the court clerk to send its opinion to the state ethics board. What ethics rules did the attorney violate? Would it make a difference if the attorney's writing problems were attributable to him battling cancer during this time?
