Supreme Court of Colorado

The People of the State of Colorado, Complainant v. Kem W. Swarts, Respondent

June 30, 2010239 P.3d 441

Summary

The court imposed a three-month suspension on Kem W. Swarts for practicing law while administratively suspended for noncompliance with continuing legal education and attorney-registration requirements. Because Swarts failed to answer the complaint or participate in the proceedings, the factual allegations and rule violations were established by default, and the court found no substantial mitigation. The suspension was conditioned on reinstatement proceedings and accompanied by an award of costs.
