With only one dissent, the State Bar of Texas executive committee voted March 8 to affirm its executive director's decision that Houston attorney Robert S. “Bob” Bennett is ineligible to run for a seat on the bar's board of directors.
Bennett, owner of Bob Bennett & Associates, said the committee's vote came as no surprise. “I knew how it was going to turn out,” he said after the meeting.
The committee's vote is the latest setback for Bennett since he received a judgment of disbarment from a Harris County District Court in March 2014. Carmen Kelsey, then-judge of the 289th District Court in San Antonio, had signed the judgment.
