Supreme Court of Georgia

In the Matter of Derric Crowther (two Cases)

January 17, 2024318 Ga. 277

Summary

The Supreme Court of Georgia rejected Crowther’s exceptions and imposed disbarment for extensive violations involving trust-account management, settlement funds, client communication, excessive fees, and dishonesty. The Court held that summary judgment was proper because the material facts established charged violations during the limitations period, while uncharged conduct could be considered only in aggravation. Reinstatement was conditioned on restitution of $140,625 plus statutory interest. No separate opinions were filed.
