People v. Gary Lee Armstead II. 17PDJ006. February 9, 2017. The Presiding Disciplinary Judge approved the parties’ conditional admission of misconduct and suspended Gary Lee Armstead II (attorney registration number 38513) from the practice of law for one year and one day, all stayed upon the successful completion of a three-year period of probation with conditions. The probation took effect February 9, 2017.
Armstead is subject to an order entered in Texas requiring him to pay child support and child support arrearages. Through garnishments, he is currently complying with his child support obligations but he is not fully complying with his arrearage obligations. He thus has violated Colo. RPC 3.4(c) (a lawyer shall not knowingly disobey an obligation under the rules of a tribunal) and Colo. RPC 8.4(d) (a lawyer shall not engage in conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice).
