Donziger did some bad things. That's mostly indisputable, although it's questionable how much control an American lawyer had over a team of Ecuadorians operating in Ecuador. But the sanctions carried out against him were an atrocious breach of ordinary legal procedures. Just because someone's moral character isn't perfect doesn't mean their legal rights disappear. John Adams would be horrified.
