A Michigan agency that investigates complaints against lawyers is taking action against nine attorneys who were allied with former President Donald Trump after the 2020 election.

FILE - Attorney Sidney Powell speaks during a rally on Wednesday, Dec. 2, 2020, in Alpharetta, Ga. Nine lawyers, including Powell, allied with former President Donald Trump face financial penalties and other sanctions after a judge Wednesday, Aug. 25, 2021, said they had abused the court system with a lawsuit that challenged Michigan's election results that certified Joe Biden as the winner.

In 2020, the attorneys supported a lawsuit on behalf of Republican voters that was filed just a few days after Biden’s 154,000-vote victory in Michigan was certified. The lawsuit was “frivolous” and exposed the legal profession to “contempt,” the Grievance Commission said in its complaint.
