The Florida Bar has opened a case into an attorney whom officers arrested for allegedly stripping naked in a busy bar, after an employee told her she was too drunk to get served—and less than a couple of hours after authorities released her from jail.

Brian Tannebaum, special counsel at Bast Amron in Miami who is not involved in the matter, said even though authorities arrested Kelly Elkins, a solo practitioner in St. Petersburg, while she was not practicing law, that does not mean she will escape retribution from the Florida Bar. He expects disciplinarians to order her to undergo an evaluation immediately.
