The court has independent authority to sanction, and discipline would come from the bar - usually, the court with supervisory power over the attorneys - not the DOJ.

Good to know, thanks!

When was the last time the bar actually disciplined someone?
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
