Kingston attorney Joseph R. Reisinger has been disbarred for excessive
court filings that “wasted the time and resources of the Luzerne County
Court” and forced the court to “defend itself against baseless
allegations of conspiracy,” according to a state Supreme Court ruling
from Friday.
Reisinger, 72, failed to appear at an argument proceeding March 7 and
must pay expenses incurred by the investigation and prosecution of the
complaint against him. In Friday’s ruling, the state Supreme Court
accepted recommendations made by the Disciplinary Board of the Supreme
Court of Pennsylvania.
Reisinger could not be reached for comment. A phone number listed for Reisinger was no longer active.
In 2011, Reisinger filed a lawsuit against Luzerne County Court
Administrator Michael Shucosky and Judge Charles Brown with a pleading
captioned, “Complaint for Permanent Injunction Because of Judicial
Corruption.” At that time, Brown was assigned multiple actions that
concerned Reisinger’s rental properties.
In 2012, Reisinger filed a lawsuit against Judge Michael T. Vough
alleging judicial corruption. In 2013, he filed a lawsuit against
Shucosky and Daniel Pillets, a law clerk to Judge Fred Pierantoni, and
another suit against Judge Lesa S. Gelb.
Those cases were all dismissed, according to the Disciplinary Board.

Without knowing more, it's hard to tell who is right and wrong here. But obviously the lawyer felt strongly or he wouldn't have continued to file motions. Shouldn't he have that right?
