State Bar clears Feldman

I believe this brings to a close the last unresolved issue involving former CM Jolanda Jones.

David Feldman

The State Bar of Texas has cleared City Attorney David Feldman of a grievance lodged by former Councilwoman Jolanda Jones that he mishandled an investigation of her.

Jones alleged last summer that Feldman violated the legal profession’s ethical standards by providing legal advice to her before an investigation into whether she used city resources to support her private law practice and later advised Mayor Annise Parker on the matter.

Feldman said he received formal notice from the State Bar on Friday that the grievance has been dismissed with no right of appeal.

See here and here for some background. Jones had been previously cleared by the District Attorney and the ethics panel, so as far as I know this puts a bow on the whole saga.
