Scott A. McMillan, Lawyer Reviews

  • Dec 22, 2023

Scott McMillan is characterized as a vexatious litigant. In McMillan v. Weathersby (9th Cir. 2002) 31 F.App'x 371, 374. [Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. D.C. No. 95-CV-3934TW(LAB). Thomas J. Whelan, District Judge, Presiding.] the court said, “None of the three main episodes that McMillan offers supports granting a mistrial. McMillan first asserts that defense counsel violated the court's in limine ruling barring reference to McMillan as a "vexatious litigant" by referring to McMillan's other lawsuits in his opening statement.”

Worse, San Diego attorney Scott McMillan operated a law school out of his small office for over a decade – but never had a single graduate. Eventually after complaints of fraud, the California State Bar too action as the State Bar Report states,

"Since opening, only three students have ever completed MAOL’s first-year curriculum and were able to take the First Year Law Students’ Examination; two of the students eventually passed the examination but each then left MAOL and transferred to other law schools. Since MAOL has had no students nor has held any classes in almost five years, its program of legal education has now been dormant for more than four years. As a result, and as confirmed by the inspection, MAOL is noncompliant as to three material requirements: Its law library is noncompliant since its hardcopy legal authorities have not been updated since 2013; without any tuition income, the law school’s current and future financial viability appears questionable; and its website and written materials offer outdated and misleading information to both the general public and potential applicants."

A Second Report from state agency, it verifies what was allegedly posted - no graduates/no attorneys from McMillan Academy of Law,

"We have had one student take the First Year Law Students' Examination and that student passed. This is the basis for the 100% pass rate thus far. As of yet, no students have graduated from the Academy."

No one likes a cheat and to see a San Diego California attorney like Scott McMillan defraud consumers to pay application fees or work for free is not what the legal community needs. Please take action and be forewarned if you apply to a law school, verify the credentials of the school and do not fall for fraudulent representations.
