A privilege, not a rightThis is a disbarment case filed by the girlfriend of a lawyer whom we shall name Mila. Ramos promised Mila that he knows a judge in a province who could issue a judgment of annulment for a fee. Thus, Danny paid P90,000 to Atty. The right to practice law is not a natural or constitutional right but a privilege or franchise. Ramos should be disbarred from the practice of law and his name stricken off the Roll of Attorneys.
