Former AD’s Law License Suspended Six Months

(Pierre, SD) — Former South Dakota Attorney General Jason Ravnsborg’s law license is being suspended for six months. A judicial tribunal made up of Chief Justice Steven Jensen and the state’s four associate justices announced the suspension on Thursday in an opinion written by Jensen. The tribunal ruled that Ravnsborg committed “various” violations following a fatal crash in 2020. The opinion said the suspension is part of a 26-month suspension “retroactive to the date that Ravnsborg was impeached and removed as attorney general.”
