IN RE: DUSTIN PAUL SEGURA (2023)

Crichton, J., additionally concurs and assigns reasons.

I agree with the immediate revocation of respondent's conditional admission. I also write separately to note that in the midst of the pandemic, this Court instituted an order for emergency admission of Qualified Applicants out of necessity and after significant debate and solemn consideration. See July 22, 2020 Order of the Louisiana Supreme Court, available at https://www.lasc.org/COVID19/Orders/2020-07-22_LASC_BarExam.all.pdf. The Court made this decision in light of the “unprecedented and extraordinary burden” that the COVID-19 pandemic had placed on bar examination applicants and the mitigation measures the Governor had in place in this State. In my view, respondent's actions in this case demonstrate a violation of the trust and grave responsibility this Court put in all Qualified Applicants—the vast majority of which have acted in accordance therewith.
