The document is a legal brief submitted to the Supreme Court of Florida by William Christian Rocker, responding to disciplinary actions taken by The Florida Bar. The brief argues that the Referee's findings were erroneous due to improper inferences drawn from Rocker's invocation of his Fifth Amendment rights, which allegedly shifted the burden of proof onto him. It contends that the evidence presented by the Bar was insufficient to prove Rocker's involvement in a marijuana cultivation operation and requests either a remand for a new hearing or a lesser sanction than disbarment based on mitigating circumstances.
