John M. Rosellini (born 1939)[1] is an American former politician in the state of Washington. He served in the Washington House of Representatives from 1967 to 1973, representing Washington's 34th legislative district.[1][2] Born in the city of Seattle, he was an alumnus of Washington State University, and Gonzaga University School of Law.[1]
Rosellini was admitted to the bar in 1973.[3] In May 1977, while he had been employed to probate the estate of Voyena Brandt, he received $10,000 in a trust fund, which Brandt's two children were supposed to eventually receive.[4] However, he proceeded to withdraw from it 13 times between July 1977 and March 1978 for personal use.[4] As a result, he was disbarred by the Washington Supreme Court on May 20, 1982.[4] In February 1986, he went before the Washington Bar Association to plead to be readmitted to the bar.[5]
