The Florida Bar, Complainant v. Randall Lawrence Gilbert, Respondent.

Summary

The Supreme Court of Florida approved the referee's factual findings and determinations of professional misconduct but rejected the recommended two-year suspension. It held that Gilbert's prolonged failure to supervise a known fraud felon, delegation of trust-account responsibilities, dishonesty toward a probation officer, and resulting losses justified disbarment. The disbarment was made effective immediately because Gilbert was already suspended.
