Las Vegas attorney disbarred over use of hacked docs to sue Cristiano Ronaldo

A legal practitioner based in Las Vegas has lost their license to practice law following the handling of a lawsuit against Cristiano Ronaldo. The disciplinary measure was imposed because the lawyer relied on illegally obtained records to pursue the legal claim targeting the soccer star.

State authorities took action against the attorney after determining that stolen materials were integrated into the legal proceedings against the athlete.
