How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- recognizing the importance of independently analyzing potential misappropriation and commingling because they are separate violations, even though “the charge presents a compound violation”
- rejecting Hearing Committee’s finding of negligent misappropriation, and adopting the Board’s finding of reckless misappropriation, where attorney’s repeated misappropriations were “so persistent . . . that his misappropriation was reckless, not merely negligent”
- finding eleven- month delay with no excuse violated Rule 1.15(c)’s prompt payment requirement
