Oregon Supreme Court

In re Graeff

April 22, 2021368 Or. 18

Summary

On de novo review, the court found by clear and convincing evidence that respondent violated the rule governing criminal conduct adversely reflecting on a lawyer’s fitness and the rules requiring communication with clients. The court concluded that respondent’s intentional shooting into an occupied law office and knowing failure to inform clients about his withdrawal and a pending summary judgment motion warranted a five-year suspension rather than the three-year suspension imposed below. The opinion contains no separate writings.
