Supreme Court of Arkansas
John Skylar (sky) Tapp, Arkansas Bar No. 76123, Appellant v. Stark Ligon, Executive Director of the Arkansas Supreme…
September 18, 20142014 Ark. LEXIS 488
Summary
The court affirmed a ninety-day suspension of Tapp’s law license and the related fine and costs imposed by the Committee. Tapp challenged only the severity of the suspension, but the court concluded that the suspension was supported by the evidence because his conflict-related conduct involved deceit or misrepresentation and his extensive disciplinary record demonstrated a substantial disregard of professional duties.
