How courts have described this case

- explaining that 10 reckless misappropriation exists where there is “indiscriminate commingling of entrusted and personal funds”
- reaching that conclusion in a case where the credibility determination was based on rejection of the respondent's testimony as \self-serving\ (\because testimony by a respondent in explanation of his conduct is almost by definition self-serving\
- noting general rule that \the burden of proving the disciplinary charges rests with [Disciplinary] Counsel\
- reckless misappropriation may be shown by proof of “a pattern or course of conduct demonstrating an unacceptable disregard for the welfare of entrusted funds”
- where respondent’s misappropriation of funds was not reckless, no presumption of disbarment
