Mississippi Supreme Court

The Mississippi Bar v. Eugene Edward Taylor, III

September 28, 2023

Summary

The court imposed reciprocal discipline on Taylor after the State Bar of Texas suspended him for mishandling settlement funds and failing to supervise his accountant. Because Taylor did not respond or identify extraordinary circumstances warranting a different sanction, the court imposed a twenty-four-month Mississippi suspension, effective upon payment of mandatory bar dues and reinstatement, and assessed $216.13 in costs. The court also required reinstatement proceedings because the suspension exceeds six months.
