In Re: George A. Flournoy

Summary

The court found that George A. Flournoy engaged in professional misconduct by directing his secretary to sign his former client's name to a satisfaction of judgment and by continuing to file pleadings after being ordered to cease participating in the former clients' litigation. The court did not find a violation based on Flournoy's initial inaccurate response to the disciplinary complaint or his collection of the disputed workers' compensation fee. It imposed a one-year suspension, deferred all but thirty days, followed by one year of unsupervised probation, and assessed specified costs.
