Topeka ? The Kansas Supreme Court is considering whether to disbar a Topeka lawyer who is seeking the Republican nomination for lieutenant governor.

The Kansas Board for Discipline of Attorneys has recommended disbarment of Bret D. Landrith over accusations that he made false allegations against court employees, judges and lawyers and failed to provide adequate representation to his clients in a pair of cases the year after he was admitted to practice law in September 2002. The high court heard the disciplinary case Thursday but did not take any action.

The disciplinary board said Landrith “is not equipped with the ethical or intellectual characteristics necessary to ever become an active and productive member of the bar of the state of Kansas.”

“I’ve seen no other disciplinary case like this,” Stanton Hazlett, the state disciplinary administrator, told the court.

Landrith said the case is the result of a conspiracy among court officials and lawyers to discriminate against minorities and against biological parents in adoption cases, which he said are the same issues prompting him to run for lieutenant governor.

Landrith described the matter as a “free speech case” and said, “I think you have to address the policy in the political sphere.”

The disciplinary board said that in an adoption case, Landrith accused employees of the Shawnee County District Court and an opposing attorney of fraud, concealment, slander and deception. In its 57-page summary, the board said Landrith “never provided one scintilla of proof of such wrongdoing.”

During the disciplinary proceedings, Landrith said that several lawyers, including Hazlett, were “engaged in a common enterprise to kidnap Kansas babies through deception and sell the infants in an illicit commerce.”

The board said Landrith provided no evidence for what it called an “incredible” allegation.

Landrith was an unsuccessful candidate for the Kansas House twice during the 1990s while living in Pittsburg, running once as a Republican and once as a Libertarian. He is now seeking the GOP nomination for lieutenant governor as the running mate of Dennis Hawver, an Ozawkie lawyer who ran for governor as a Libertarian in 2002.
