How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • although hearing board did not specifically mention attorney’s emotional condition as mitigating factor, board’s finding on condition indicated that it took condition into account in recommending sanction
  • attorney disbarred for deceitful conduct in handling legal matters despite claims that mental disorder contributed to misconduct
  • attorney's \success neurosis\ was not direct cause of misconduct; thus court rejected attorney's claim that his disbarment violated ADA because there was no causal connection between his mental illness and the misconduct
  • under ABA standards, mental condition may be considered as mitigating factor when medically documented condition caused misconduct, and respondent’s recovery is demonstrated by meaningful and sustained period of rehabilitation that makes recurrence of the misconduct unlikely
