The Georgia Court’s discussion was as follows: “The Supreme Court of Illinois accepted a petition to impose a 60-day suspension on consent of an attorney who, among other things, had published in a blog related to her legal work confidential information about her clients and derogatory comments about judges, and had included information from which the identity of the clients and the judges could be discerned. The Supreme Court of Wisconsin imposed reciprocal discipline, i.e., a 60-day suspension, for the attorneyís conduct, quoting extensively in its opinion from documents filed in the Illinois proceeding. See Office of Lawyer Regulation v. Peshek, 334 Wis.2d 373, 798 N.W.2d 879 (2011). In In Re Quillinan, 20 DB Rptr. 288 (2006), summarized by the State Bar of Oregon in http://www.osbar.org/ publications/bulletin/07jan/discipline.html, the Oregon disciplinary board approved a stipulation for discipline that suspended for 90 days an attorney who drafted and transmitted an e-mail disclosing to members of the Oregon State Barís workersí compensation listserve personal and medical information about a client whom she named, and suggesting the client was seeking a new lawyer.” (Footnotes omitted.)
