| 15 | 04/22/1997 | DISPOSITION: DISCIPLINE IMPOSED | ||
| 16 | 04/22/1997 | UNANIMOUS OPINION: , Per Curiam | ||
| 17 | 04/22/1997 | Court exercised its inherent power and publicly reprimands LeRoy Anseth for violations of Rule | ||
| 18 | 04/22/1997 | 1.16, NDRPC (failure to surrender papers and property to which the client is entitled) in cases A | ||
| 19 | 04/22/1997 | and C; and Rule 1.4, NDRPC, (failure to inform client about incomplete status of a case upon | ||
| 20 | 04/22/1997 | withdrawal of representation; failure to take steps to the extent reasonably practicable to | ||
| 21 | 04/22/1997 | protect client interests) in cases E and F; the Court is not concerned with cases B and D because | ||
| 22 | 04/22/1997 | there was no duty to turn over documents no longer in his possession. | ||
| 23 | 04/22/1997 | The Court found mitigating circumstances in Mr. Anseth's case specifically, the absence of a prior | ||
| 24 | 04/22/1997 | disciplinary record and his cooperation with the Disciplinary Board. Balanced against his | ||
| 25 | 04/22/1997 | failure to fully understand the seriousness of his misconduct, public reprimand is appropriate. | ||
| 26 | 04/22/1997 | LeRoy Anseth is also ordered to pay the costs and expenses of the disciplinary proceedings, in an | ||
| 27 | 04/22/1997 | amount to be determined by the Disciplinary Board. | ||
| 28 | 04/22/1997 | Judgment Mailed to Parties | ||
| 29 | 05/09/1997 | Disciplinary Board ordered to assess costs in amount of $2,879.52 | ||
| 30 | 06/12/1997 | Payment of costs in the amount of $2,879.52 (Check No. 5853) | ||
