United States First Circuit

Reciprocal disbarment of an attorney from the federal district court for the district of Massachusetts is affirmed where the district court was within its discretion in concluding that no evidentiary hearing was necessary because new evidence would not establish an "infirmity of proof" such that relief would be available under a local rule.
