“And now, this 21st day of September, 2015, upon consideration of the responses to a Rule to Show Cause why Kathleen Granahan Kane should not be placed on temporary suspension, the Rule is made absolute,” the order states. In a one-page order, all justices agreed with the board that the perjury and related charges Kane is facing for allegedly orchestrating and lying about a grand jury leak have her damaged her ability to oversee the statewide criminal and civil justice functions her office provides the commonwealth. The court’s 5-0 ruling, issued today, means Kane must surrender her law license - which she needs to do her job - under an “emergency temporary suspension” sought last month by the court’s disciplinary board for lawyers. HARRISBURG - Attorney General Kathleen Kane’s law license has been suspended by the state Supreme Court, possibly paving the way for her removal from elective office.
