Pattis, a Connecticut attorney and counsel of record for the defendants, Alex Emric Jones and Free Speech Systems, LLC, in the underlying consolidated tort actions arising out of the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School, filed the present writ of error challenging the order of the trial court suspending him from the practice of law for a period of two weeks for violating the Rules of Professional Conduct (rules). Pattis claims that the court's disciplinary order constituted an abuse of its discretion. We reject this claim and, accordingly, deny the writ of error.")
