State ex rel. Oklahoma Bar Association v. Smith

Summary

The Supreme Court of Oklahoma affirmed the disciplinary proceeding, finding clear and convincing evidence that respondent David Leo Smith violated Rules 1.5(e)(2), 1.15, 3.3, 8.4(a) and Rule 1.3, and imposed a 30‑day suspension while denying the Bar Association’s request for costs. Justice Combs concurred in part and dissented in part, arguing for a longer suspension and full costs.
