Supreme Court of Georgia
In the Matter of Christopher Ryan Breault
January 17, 2024318 Ga. 127
Summary
The Court rejected the Review Board’s recommendation of a one-month suspension because the Special Master did not fully analyze the applicable ABA Standards for Imposing Lawyer Sanctions. The Court remanded for findings addressing the duties violated, Breault’s mental state, actual or potential injury, and aggravating and mitigating circumstances before recommending an appropriate discipline. The Court expressly declined to decide whether Breault violated the charged professional-conduct rules or whether a one-month suspension was warranted.
