| Case Digest |
Respondent both intentionally and knowingly failed to properly handle fiduciary funds by cashing client settlement checks at a check-cashing agency and intentionally and knowingly converted his clients’ funds when he failed to promptly distribute their share of the funds and failed to hold their funds inviolate. Thereafter, Respondent made agreements with some clients to make payments to them by a certain date when he knew he did not have the funds available to fulfill his obligations.
The Disciplinary Board recommended disbarment. By Order dated May 6, 2004, the Supreme Court disbarred Respondent.
