Elizabeth Warren- NO MASS LAW LICENSE

[g5000]

An unlicensed practictioner of law was going to be put in charge of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau?

[g5000]

President Barack Obama’s “Consumer Czar” Elizabeth Warren was appointed by Obama to help set up and, many fear, to eventually run the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). In March 2011, Warren testified to Congress about the CFPB’s role in a 50-state settlement underway with the nation’s largest mortgage lenders related to alleged improper foreclosure procedures.

Through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and the open records laws of the states, Judicial Watch obtained documents that show that Warren’s and the CFPB’s involvement in the mortgage settlement negotiations is much greater than she told Congress. Following the release of these documents, the House Financial Services Committee and the Oversight and Government Reform Committee sent a letter to Department of the Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner requesting more documents regarding the mortgage settlement.

I believe she has a valid license, just not for mass.

I think all this confusion stems from the op's attempt to pretend that any of this means anything.

See Section 83.5.3(b)

“(b) Other Attorneys. An attorney who is a member of the bar of any United States District Court or the bar of the highest court of any state may appear and practice in this court in a particular case by leave granted in the discretion of the court, provided he files a certificate that (1) he is a member of the bar in good standing in every jurisdiction where he has been admitted to practice; (2) there are no disciplinary proceedings pending against him as a member of the bar in any jurisdiction; and (3) he is familiar with the Local Rules of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts; and provided further, his application for leave to practice in this court is on motion of a member of the bar of this court, who shall also file an appearance. An attorney seeking admission under this subsection may not enter an appearance or sign any papers until his application has been granted, except that the attorney may sign a complaint or any paper necessary to prevent entry of default for failure to answer or otherwise plead, provided such complaint or other paper is accompanied by his application for admission in proper form.”

She doesn't need a Mass bar to work a federal case. However, sh'es still a fraud.

I did not know that. You sort of debunked this thread before it got started

She has to be a member of the federal bar! And she has to be a licensed attorney to be a member of the federal bar. So she's not a licensed attorney in Massachusettes. Is she licensed anyplace?

Boston's 96.9 FM radio program "Jim and Margery" Elizabeth Warren statement comes as a surprise to the law firm of Simpson, Thacher, and Bartlett, which listed her as "of counsel" in the 2009 brief they submitted to the United States Supreme Court on behalf of their client, Travelers Insurance.

In the case, Warren defended Travelers as it sought protection from future claims as part of an agreement that allowed it to avoid paying victims. Travelers won & avoided paying victims from the settlement.

I wonder why Elizabeth Warren was representing Travelers Insurance. Democrats are best buddies with the insurance giant. After all it was the merger of Travelers Insurance, Salomon Smith Barney & CitiBank that formed CitiCorp thus breaching the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 & the Glass–Steagall & Banking Acts of 1933. That is when Bill Clinton publicly declared, "The Glass-Steagall Act is no longer relevant."

Bill Clinton and many prominent democrats pushed to overturn the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 & Glass Steagall act of 1933. Bill Clinton personally signed all the laws that deregulated Wallstreet & turned it into a gambling casino that raises prices on citizens, steals their savings, caused the subprime housing bubble & the depression of 2008.

Feb 27, 1995 TIME: CLINTON PROPOSES BANKING REFORMS - The Clinton Administration proposed sweeping changes in the nation's banking system that would permit commercial banks to sell insurance and underwrite securities. Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin outlined the new proposal, which would allow banks to "affiliate" with Wall Street firms, insurance companies and other financial service providers. It would repeal several federal restrictions, including the Depression-era Glass Steagall Act, which forbids banks from underwriting securities or selling insurance.

New York Times Feb 27, 1995 White House Is Joining in Efforts To Loosen the Limits on Banking - The Clinton Administration plans to call this week for legislation that would allow commercial banks, securities firms and insurance companies to merge, forming giant financial services companies that would offer everything from checking accounts to mutual funds and life insurance, Federal officials say.

In a speech prepared for delivery in New York on Monday and in Congressional testimony scheduled for Wednesday, Treasury Secretary Robert E. Rubin will urge Congress to repeal the Depression-era Glass-Steagall Act, the officials said. For more than 60 years, the law has forced financial concerns to choose between owning commercial banks or owning securities companies like brokerage firms and investment banks, but not both.

Mr. Rubin also plans to call for broad changes in the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, which has effectively barred most financial concerns from owning both commercial banks and insurance companies, said the Federal officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity. Mr. Rubin's speech will represent the first time that the Administration has taken a position on eliminating the legal and regulatory barriers among financial industries.

Regulatory changes in recent years have already allowed commercial banks, like Citibank, to begin selling stocks and mutual funds on a limited basis. But the Glass-Steagall Act still bars Citibank, for example, from merging with a brokerage firm like Merrill Lynch or an investment bank like Goldman, Sachs, which provides corporate investment advice and helps companies issue stock. The Bank Holding Company Act bars Citibank fom merging with a big insurance company like Prudential.

The Administration's plan would allow such deals, provided they complied with antitrust laws. The plan would pave the way for new consolidation in the financial system.

Nov 13, 1999 New York Times: Clinton Signs Legislation Overhauling Banking Laws - President Clinton signed into law today a sweeping overhaul of Depression-era banking laws. The measure lifts barriers in the industry and allows banks, securities firms and insurance companies to merge and to sell each other's products.

''This legislation is truly historic,'' President Clinton told a packed audience of lawmakers and top financial regulators. ''We have done right by the American people.''

The bill repeals parts of the 1933 Glass-Steagall Act and the 1956 Bank Holding Company Act to level the domestic playing field for United States financial companies and allow them to compete better in the evolving global financial marketplace.

''With this bill,'' Treasury Secretary Lawrence H. Summers said, ''the American financial system takes a major step forward toward the 21st Century -- one that will benefit American consumers, business and the national economy.''

Time: 25 People to Blame for the Financial Crisis - President Clinton's tenure was characterized by economic prosperity and financial deregulation, which in many ways set the stage for the excesses of recent years. Among his biggest strokes of free-wheeling capitalism was the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, which repealed the Glass-Steagall Act, a cornerstone of Depression-era regulation. He also signed the Commodity Futures Modernization Act, which exempted credit-default swaps from regulation. In 1995 Clinton loosened housing rules by rewriting the Community Reinvestment Act, which put added pressure on banks to lend in low-income neighborhoods. It is the subject of heated political and scholarly debate whether any of these moves are to blame for our troubles, but they certainly played a role in creating a permissive lending environment.

Elizabeth Lie-a-watha Warren, the fake Indian is also a fake attorney...big surprise!

Speaking to Boston's 96.9 FM radio program "Jim and Margery" on Monday, Democratic Senate challenger Elizabeth Warren admitted that she is not licensed to practice law in Massachusetts.

According to reports from listeners, she claimed that she does not maintain a law practice. She also "said that she gave up her New Jersey license because she could not keep up with the Continuing Education requirements," according to one listener who commented on Breitbart's Monday story, "Does Elizabeth Warren Have a Law License Problem?".

Ms. Warren's statement comes as a surprise to the many clients she's provided legal services to over the past decade, including the law firm of Simpson, Thacher, and Bartlett, which listed her as "of counsel" in the 2009 brief they submitted to the United States Supreme Court on behalf of their client, Travelers Insurance.

Fake attorney, because she doesn't maintain a state license? Are you really this petty? She teaches law, and that doesn't require a license. In that capacity, he has every right to consult with firms who want her services.

What a fucked up thread.

Provide a link that shows she directly represented a client regarding state law issues. You're a moron.

I am not a law expert. But from what I've read, it is legal to give council, and to practice federal cases out of that office. Now if she were taking on mass. cases, that would be illegal.

She held herself out as an attorney. She was paid for her services in representing a client. She listed herself as being licensed in Texas, and is not a member of that bar either. The other state she listed as being licensed to practice is New Jersey but, what do you know, she's not licensed in New Jersey either. Apparently she is not licensed to practice law anyplace.

» Elizabeth Warren’s law license problem - Le·gal In·sur·rec·tion

I confirmed with the Massachusetts Board of Bar Overseers by telephone that Warren never has been admitted to practice in Massachusetts. I had two conversations with the person responsible for verifying attorney status. In the first conversation the person indicated she did not see any entry for Warren in the computer database, but she wanted to double check. I spoke with her again several hours later, and she indicated she had checked their files and also had spoken with another person in the office, and there was no record of Warren ever having been admitted to practice in Massachusetts.

Warren’s own listing of her Bar admissions is consistent with not being licensed in Massachusetts. In a June 25, 2008 CV Warren listed only Texas and New Jersey.

Warren’s Texas Bar information indicates she is not eligible to be licensed in Texas, but does not indicate when she went on that inactive status. Consistent with our finding that Warren was not admitted in Massachusetts, Warren listed only one other place of admission on her Texas record, New Jersey:

Warren became licensed in New Jersey in 1977. She famously and speculatively claimed to be the “first nursing mother to take a Bar exam” in New Jersey.

Warren, however, is not currently licensed in New Jersey:

She is a liar and a criminal. She took money based on her reprsentation that she is an attorney.

This isn't surprising. She has been lying all her life.

 

[rightwinger]

I suspect a Red Herring

Warren is a Law School Professor and I imagine she knows what the limitations are in terms of when you need a license and when you don't. Maintaining a state license when you are not currently practicing does not make much sense

But go at it right wingers....Beat this dead horse

Let us know if anything comes of it. Let me know if you find Obama's Social Security Card while you are at it

 

[Lovebears65]

She should go to jail for that .. At least should not be allowed to run for office for this..

It is quite illegal to give counsel to clients on the representation that you are an attorney. It is illegal to practice law in Federal Cases while not being a member of the Federal Bar and you have to be licensed someplace to be in the Federal Bar.

If there is any merit to this claim I'm sure the media will jump on it. I think I'll reserve condemnation until after I see all the facts.
