* IN THE ATTORNEY GRIEVANCE COMMISSION OF MARYLAND * SUPREME COURT

* OF MARYLAND v. * AG No. 19 BRUCE ALLEN JOHNSON, JR. * September Term, 2024 ORDER

In its petition for disciplinary or remedial action, the Attorney Grievance

Commission alleges that, on August 29, 2024, the District of Columbia Court of Appeals

disbarred the respondent by an Opinion and Order from the practice of law. Upon the

filing of the petition and pursuant to Rule 19-737(c), the Court issued an order

requiring the respondent to show cause why corresponding discipline should not be

imposed. The respondent filed a response opposing the imposition of corresponding

discipline.

Upon consideration of the petition and the response, it is this 27th day of

January 2025, by the Supreme Court of Maryland,

ORDERED that the Respondent, Bruce Allen Johnson, Jr., is disbarred from

the practice of law in the State of Maryland effective immediately; and it is further

ORDERED that the Clerk of this Court shall strike the name of Bruce Allen

Johnson, Jr. from the register of attorneys in this Court and certify that fact to the

Trustees of the Client Protection Fund of the Bar of Maryland and all Clerks of all

judicial tribunals in this State in accordance with Maryland Rule 19-761(b).
