WASHINGTON — Donald Bogard, the controversial president of the beleaguered Legal Services Corp., is resigning from his post, spokesman James Streeter confirmed today.
Bogard’s resignation will take effect Jan. 31 but he will serve for an apparently undetermined period as a consultant to the federally funded organization that provides legal help to the poor. There had been much speculation that Bogard would be asked to leave by the organization’s new board of directors, 11 people appointed by President Reagan while Congress was in recess after they had failed to win Senate confirmation.
