The Connecticut affirmed a reprimand of an attorney in a matter that began with two overdraft notices from his IOLTA account
The defendant explained that the overdraft had resulted from an attempt to transfer funds from his PayPal account to his Webster Bank account. After learning that the defendant’s IOLTA account was linked to a PayPal account, the Statewide Grievance Committee requested more information about the accounts. The defendant failed to comply with this request, and the overdraft matter was referred to the plaintiff, who filed a grievance on April 22, 2015.
As to adherence to time limits
the untimeliness of the defendant’s disciplinary proceedings does not require dismissal of the presentment complaint, and the trial court did not err when it refused to dismiss the action.
