Since Fort Lauderdale attorney John Spencer Jenkins’ emergency suspension in January, the amount of client funds he’s alleged to have misappropriated has gone up to $612,000, and Jenkins has gone from a suspended lawyer to a disbarred lawyer.

John Jenkins, aka Spencer Jenkins, also remains gone.

No filings or any form of communication came from Jenkins to prevent his disbarment last week by the state Supreme Court. When his Truist Bank accounts were frozen on Jan. 16, a referee’s report said, his law firm trust account had $93.16 and the operating account had a negative balance.
