The state of Illinois presented James Alan Stoddard with a law license in 1976 after he graduated from the University of Illinois Law School.

The Disciplinary Commission found Jimmy guilty of the following misconduct.

As a direct consequence of his misconduct, the enablers for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Illinois Supreme Court punished Jimmy by gifting him with a complimentary reprimand.

As we speak (November 2016), Jimmy practices with Klein Stoddard Buck Lewis LLC at 2045 Aberdeen Court in Sycamore, Illinois.
