The lawyer who represented Al Gore in his Supreme Court challenge of Florida results in the 2000 presidential election has been accused of ethics violations in another case.
A Florida Bar grievance committee found probable cause that David Boies violated rules of misconduct by giving money to a client and improperly supervising other lawyers.
The case will be heard by a judge appointed by the Florida Supreme Court.
The allegations stem from his involvement in a legal battle between the owners of two Palm Beach lawn-care companies.
