Supreme Court of Colorado
The People of the State of Colorado v. William W. Muhr
March 13, 2016370 P.3d 677
Summary
The Hearing Board found that William Muhr committed multiple ethical violations in two client matters. He allowed one client's limitations period to expire and concealed that failure with a fictitious settlement, while in another matter he sought dismissal of a client's federal claims without reasonable communication and disclosed adverse work-product analysis. The Board imposed a one-year-and-one-day suspension, with nine months served and the remainder stayed during a three-year probationary period with practice monitoring.
