In Re: Kenneth Todd Wallace

Summary

The court imposed a thirty-month suspension on Kenneth Todd Wallace for intentionally recording false and inflated billable hours across multiple matters, with all but twelve months deferred and the suspension made retroactive to his interim suspension. The court found a lengthy pattern of dishonesty but credited mitigating circumstances, including his resignation, renunciation of his termination bonus, cooperation, remorse, and the absence of actual client harm. The court independently reviewed the disciplinary record while applying manifest-error review to the committee's factual findings.
