Memphis lawyer John R. Hershberger was publicly censured by the Board of Professional Responsibility yesterday. Hershberger was found to have violated the Rules of Professional Conduct by attempting to engage in an ex parte communication when he went to a judge's house to ask her a question pertaining to a case. The judge was not home. This censure does not affect Hershberger’s ability to practice law.
