A three-judge panel convened on March 26, 2018, to hear three separate allegations of misconduct. First, the Bar contended that Morrissey's criminal conviction and improper contact with his 17-year-old intern violated rules regarding criminal conduct by an attorney, and that Morrissey had destroyed evidence relating to the criminal case against him.<a href="#cite_note-VSB_criminal-17">[17]</a> On March 28, the panel found that though the Bar had not shown that Morrissey destroyed evidence, they did find that the Bar had successfully demonstrated that Morrissey's relationship with his intern was "a criminal or deliberately wrongful act that reflects adversely on the lawyer's honesty, trustworthiness, or fitness to practice law."<a href="#cite_note-VSB_criminal-17">[17]</a> On March 29, the panel considered charges stemming from Morrissey's representation of former Virginia governor <a href="/wiki/Douglas_Wilder" title="Douglas Wilder">Douglas Wilder</a> and the <a href="/wiki/United_States_National_Slavery_Museum" title="United States National Slavery Museum">United States National Slavery Museum</a> in a tax matter.<a href="#cite_note-VSB_Wilder-18">[18]</a> Despite being subpoenaed, Wilder failed to appear, and so the disciplinary panel found insufficient evidence as to these charges.

Morrissey was thus found to have violated rules that require a lawyer to ensure that anyone under his or her supervision also follow ethics rules. The panel also noted that Morrissey had not informed his client that someone else would be present, itself a violation of the Bar's rules. Based on the violations that it found Morrissey had committed and considering his prior disciplinary and legal difficulties, the panel ordered that Morrissey's law license be revoked effective June 15, 2018.<a href="#cite_note-VSB_revocation-19">[19]</a> Morrissey applied to the Virginia Supreme Court on June 13, 2018, for a stay of his revocation as he perfected an appeal to the Richmond Circuit Court's ruling.
