In Re: Kenneth Michael Waguespack, Jr.

Summary

The court found that respondent's failure to answer the formal charges caused the factual allegations to be deemed admitted, and those facts established extensive professional misconduct, including trust-account misuse, conversion of funds, neglect, noncommunication, and failure to cooperate with the disciplinary investigation. Concluding that the misconduct involved repeated intentional conversion causing substantial harm, the court permanently disbarred respondent, ordered restitution, and assessed costs. No separate opinions were filed.
