Andrew L. Holton, Kba Member No. 87681, Movant v. Kentucky Bar Association

Summary

The court dismissed five disciplinary counts after the movant supplied a response to the bar complaint and verified answer, and the KBA agreed that the response justified dismissal. It approved the parties’ negotiated sanction for the two admitted violations arising from the $18,000 advance to the client, imposing a sixty-one-day suspension probated for two years with conditions. The movant was also ordered to complete a Kentucky Lawyer Assistance Program evaluation and pay the proceeding’s costs.
