People v. Morris. 10PDJ037 (consolidated with 11PDJ005). July 12, 2011. Attorney Regulation. The Presiding Disciplinary Judge approved a Conditional Admission of Misconduct submitted by the parties and suspended Synthia Kaye Morris (Attorney Registration Number 18397) from the practice of law for thirty days, all stayed upon the successful completion of a two-year period of probation, with conditions, effective July 13, 2011. Respondent knowingly ignored court orders and failed to appear for trial, which caused judgment to be entered against her clients. Respondent also failed to appear for a contempt hearing. In a second client matter, Respondent failed to immediately contact the district court to transmit the record, as ordered by the Colorado Court of Appeals. She also failed to timely file a designation of record and respond to an order to show cause, which delayed her client’s appellate matter. In a third matter, Respondent failed to competently represent her client in connection with an eviction proceeding. Respondent’s misconduct constitutes grounds for the imposition of discipline pursuant to C.R.C.P. 251.5(a) and violated Colo. RPC 1.1, 1.3, and 8.4(d).
