In re Pistotnik

Summary

The court found that Bradley A. Pistotnik violated KRPC 8.4(b), (c), and (g) through dishonest conduct connected to a criminal scheme to remove unfavorable Internet postings. Balancing the misconduct against substantial mitigation, including restitution, remorse, health problems, and the remoteness of prior discipline, the court imposed a one-year suspension and required a reinstatement hearing. The opinion contains no separate writings.
