Supreme Court of Colorado
The People of the State of Colorado v. Jack H. McQuitty
March 29, 2016371 P.3d 279
Summary
The Hearing Board found that Respondent knowingly violated professional-conduct rules by failing to comply with court-ordered family and spousal-support obligations and by refusing to provide required financial disclosures. It rejected the claim that he knowingly misrepresented his support obligations on his 2014 attorney registration statement because the temporary order was unallocated and the exact wording of the registration question was not in evidence. The Board imposed a suspension of one year and one day, subject to earlier reinstatement if Respondent paid his past-due spousal support or obtained an approved payment plan.
