Go Inactive Or Seek Help

The Delaware Supreme Court approved the recommendation of its Board on Professional Responsibility and imposed a public reprimand of an attorney.

One unusual aspect of the court’s order: the attorney must either seek inactive status within 30 days or undergo a mental health evaluation and monitoring by the Bar’s treatment program.

He must also pay late fees to the Continuing Legal Education Committee and costs of the disciplinary prosecution.

The disciplinary problems stemmed primarily from failure to complete CLE obligations and a false registration statement. (Mike Frisch)
