The Referral Loop
AGC File No. 26-2141 — October 9, 2026
What Arrived
A letter from the Michigan Attorney Grievance Commission. Dated October 9, 2026. Received October 18, 2026.
RE: Kevin Mok as to Judge Cylenthia LaToye Miller AGC File No. 26-2141
Enclosed please find your correspondence. Please be advised that complaints as to Michigan judges must be directed to the Judicial Tenure Commission located at 3034 W. Grand Blvd., Suite 8-450, Detroit, Michigan 48202.
Signed by Cynthia C. Bullington, Assistant Deputy Administrator.
The filing was returned. The correspondence enclosed. The redirect issued.
Who Signed It
Cynthia C. Bullington:
| Fact | Detail |
|---|---|
| Title | Assistant Deputy Administrator, AGC |
| Tenure | 44 years at AGC (since 1982) |
| Education | MSU BA, George Washington University JD |
| Teaching | Adjunct Professor, MSU College of Law |
| Subject | Professional Responsibility |
| Committee | Character and Fitness |
The person who teaches Michigan law students about professional responsibility signed the letter that returned the complaint about a judge who:
- Brought a loaded unregistered gun to DTW airport
- Practiced law while serving as a judge (“wholly improper”)
- Dismissed an infant murder case (prosecutor: “bias throughout the trial”)
- Serves as Board Chair of a charter school run by a man with 9 criminal convictions
- Was colleagues with Banks at Baker College, where he taught criminal justice under a fabricated JD
The Referral Loop
Here is the loop:
| Step | Action | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | File complaint about Judge Miller with AGC | “Judges go to JTC” |
| 2 | JTC already has complaint about Miller | Already acknowledged, investigations opened |
| 3 | File complaint about Banks (non-attorney) with State Bar UPL | Closed in 30 days |
| 4 | AGC handles attorney misconduct | Banks is not an attorney (no bar admission) |
| 5 | State Bar handles unauthorized practice | Closed the complaint |
The loop:
- AGC says: “Not our problem — she is a judge, go to JTC”
- JTC says: “We are investigating” (but admonished her DTW gun incident as “dismissed with admonition”)
- State Bar says: “We closed the UPL complaint in 30 days”
- Nobody says: “A sitting judge served as Board Chair of a school run by a man with 9 criminal convictions who claims a law degree he does not have”
Each agency handles its own jurisdiction. No agency handles the intersection. The referral IS the system.

The Question That Remains
The AGC complaint was about Judge Miller. The AGC is correct: judicial conduct complaints go to JTC.
But Miller is not just a judge. She is also:
- A licensed attorney (MSU Law JD) — attorney conduct IS AGC jurisdiction
- A Baker College adjunct who watched Banks teach criminal justice under fabricated credentials
- A Board Chair of a charter school that receives public funds while its operator has 9 criminal convictions
- A person who practiced law while serving as judge — which is both judicial misconduct (JTC) AND potential attorney misconduct (AGC)
The AGC decided this was a judge complaint, not an attorney complaint. They created file 26-2141 and returned it.
The filing is now part of the public record.
