The law license of Hottinger is in jeopardy over allegations he misused money from a client's lawsuit settlement, an infraction that he admitted took place while he was still a legislator. The Office of Lawyers Professional Responsibility board filed a petition Tuesday, Feb. 6, 2007, asking the state Supreme Court to suspend or disbar Hottinger from practicing law. (AP Photo)
