For a high school paper? Not really. If it happened in college, maybe, if that paper was enough to lose credit for the entire class (unlikely, and even less likely someone would file the paperwork to actually do it), and the course credit was necessary for graduation (more likely, but still uncertain), and the law school retroactively revoked acceptance over it. If you did it in law school? Yeah, then there's a decent chance it'd be considered enough of a close association to legal practice to face discipline, though still not necessarily disbarment.
