People v. Butler

6 Citing cases

  1. People v. Lavenhar

    934 P.2d 1355 (Colo. 1997)   Cited 31 times
    Holding that a lawyer's knowing misappropriation of funds, whether belonging to a client or third party, warrants disbarment except in the presence of extraordinary factors of mitigation

    See C.R.C.P. 241.20(b)(4); People v. Butler, 875 P.2d 219, 219 (Colo. 1994). The same hearing panel in case No. 96SA106 approved the second hearing board's findings and recommendation that the respondent be disbarred.

  2. People v. Williams

    915 P.2d 669 (Colo. 1996)   Cited 3 times
    Suspending lawyer for three months for neglect of legal matter aggravated by lawyer's prior discipline

    The respondent's exceptions were stricken because he did not request the court reporter to prepare a transcript of the proceedings or file a designation of record, as required under C.R.C.P. 241.20(b)(4). People v. Butler, 875 P.2d 219, 219 (Colo. 1994). We accept the recommendation of the hearing panel and order that the respondent be suspended for three months and pay the costs of the proceeding.

  3. People v. Lutz

    897 P.2d 807 (Colo. 1995)   Cited 6 times
    Ordering suspension for a year and a day for lawyer who had misrepresented a material fact to a court and filed forged waiver of service forms, but noting this sanction would be too lenient had the lawyer not testified that he planned to retire that year

    The respondent's exceptions were stricken, however, since the respondent did not file a designation of record as required under C.R.C.P. 241.20(b)(4). People v. Butler, 875 P.2d 219, 219 (Colo. 1994). No transcript of the testimony has been filed in this court, so we consider the board's factual findings binding on review.

People v. Butler, 875 P.2d 219, 219 (Colo. 1994). We accept the recommendation of the hearing panel and order that the respondent be publicly censured and assessed the costs of the proceeding.

    Finding no due process violation in Virginia disciplinary proceeding where the attorney had notice of that proceeding, the attorney was represented by counsel, the attorney's counsel cross-examined witnesses and introduced exhibits, and bar counsel were required to prove misconduct by clear and convincing evidence

    The assistant disciplinary counsel did not except to the panel's action, and the respondent's exceptions were stricken because he did not file a designation of record as required under C.R.C.P. 241.20(b)(4). People v. Butler, 875 P.2d 219, 219 (Colo. 1994). We accept the recommendation of the hearing panel and order that the respondent be disbarred and assessed the costs of this proceeding.
