Supreme Court of Missouri

In re: Dan K. Purdy

March 21, 2023

Summary

The Supreme Court of Missouri reviewed the disciplinary record of attorney Dan K. Purdy de novo and imposed an indefinite suspension with no leave to apply for reinstatement for twelve months, rejecting Purdy’s request for a reduced term and credit for his interim suspension. The Court relied on ABA sanction standards and prior Missouri cases to determine that suspension, not disbarment, was appropriate.
