In re Woolbright8/19/2004
ts for the time period since her disbarment and all prior years. She has filed all required tax returns during this period as well.
17. She is married to Frank Liebling, Esq. of Tupelo, Mississippi who has provided financial support since her disbarment. Other sources of income include a small amount generated from agricultural property and operations; rental income from a house; and a fee following her services as administratrix of her mother's estate.
18. Last, regarding the final jurisdictional requirement, Woolbright claims that she has kept herself abreast of current legal issues. She has done so independently by using the legal resources provided at the Mississippi University for Women and through discourse with former associates. The Bar cites the fact that she will be required to pass the bar examination and that her success at this should satisfy the inquiry as to the sufficiency of Woolbright's legal learning.
19. Woolbright's petition is accompanied by numerous letters of recommendation supporting her reinstatement. [FN3]
CONCLUSION
20. Woolbright's lifestyle since her disbarment has evidenced a firm resolve to live a correct life. The overall tone of Woolbright's petition is that of atonement and remorse. She did not deny her conduct or contest either the criminal or professional penalties imposed. Woolbright has willingly admitted her guilt and accept her punishment without contest. Therefore, her petition is granted provided she satisfies the examination requirements of Rule 12.5 and continues to participate in substance abuse programs.
*4 21. The circumstances giving rise to her disbarment followed a relapse, thus Woolbright is aware that a relapse is possible and that no one is technically "healed" from an addiction. Woolbright has been involved in A.A. The Bar administers a similar program named Mississippi Lawyers and Judges Assistance Program ("MLJAP"), which is tailored to the needs of its members. Woolbright is to attend A.A. meetings biweekly and enroll, and participate, in the MLJAP program. Her participation in A.A. and MLJAP shall last indefinitely, but no less than two years, after which she can petition this Court for such relief as would be appropriate at that time. The Court wants to ensure she has a support group in place once she reencounters the pressures that accompany the practice of law. Her continued participation in these programs is both for her benefit and the benefit of others.
22. PETITION FOR REINSTATEMENT GRANTED CONTINGENT ON WOOLBRIGHT'S SATISFYING THE AFOREMENTIONED CONDITIONS.
