    The Florida Supreme Court Order SC13-643 David J. Stern disbarred. The Florida Supreme Court disbarred David J. Stern but did impose any meaningful discipline, no fine or penalty, only judgment entered for The Florida Bar "for recovery of costs from David James Stern in the amount of $49,125.02". As applied to the 100,000 foreclosure cases Mr. Stern abandoned, that amounts to 49 cents per case. Mr. Stern gets to keep a $58.5 million cash windfall for the sale of his back-office document preparation services, according to the Palm Beach Post. http://blogs.palmbeachpost.com/realtime/2013/10/29/foreclosure-king-on-verge-of-losing-law-license-but-keeps-58-5-million-windfall/ There was no justice for homeowners wrongly foreclosed by David J. Stern Enterprises (DJSE). There was no Florida Attorney General criminal prosecution of Mr. Stern or DJSE. Florida Supreme Court gave David J. Stern a sweetheart deal: 49 cents per 100,000 abandoned foreclosure cases, which The Bar’s Referee Nancy Perez wrote "created chaos on the courts of the state of Florida, prejudicing the whole system as a whole." (page 4, Report of Referee SC13-643). Any number of attorneys would gladly consent to disbarment in exchange for a $58.5 million cash windfall regardless of the circumstances. The Florida Supreme Court Order SC13-643 is an embarrassment to the rule of law, signed "POLSTON, C.J., and PARIENTE, LEWIS, QUINCE, CANADY, LABARGA, and PERRY, JJ., concur" who approved a 49 cents per case settlement in the disbarment of Mr. Stern.
