Supreme Court of Colorado
The People of the State of Colorado v. William Greg Weatherford
August 11, 2015357 P.3d 1251
Summary
The Presiding Disciplinary Judge disbarred William Greg Weatherford after entering default when he failed to answer the disciplinary complaint and failed to appear at the sanctions hearing. The admitted allegations established that Weatherford abandoned a divorce client, knowingly converted her $1,750 retainer, failed to communicate with her, and failed to respond to disciplinary investigators. The court concluded that disbarment was the presumptive and appropriate sanction, and ordered restitution and payment of costs.
