Supreme Court of Colorado

The People of the State of Colorado, Complainant v. Patrick Dennis Beasley, Respondent

July 23, 2010241 P.3d 548

Summary

The court entered default against the respondent after he failed to answer the disciplinary complaint, deeming the complaint's factual allegations admitted and the rule violations established by clear and convincing evidence. Based on neglect, inadequate communication, commingling of client funds, inadequate supervision, and dishonest interrogatory responses, the court imposed a suspension of one year and one day, conditioned reinstatement on an independent medical examination and restitution, and ordered payment of costs.
