People v. Rodway, No. 04PDJ011. 3/16/04. Attorney Regulation. The Presiding Disciplinary Judge approved the parties’ Conditional Admission of Misconduct and administered a public censure to Respondent Peter E. Rodway, attorney registration number 17029 in this reciprocal discipline action from the State of Maine. Respondent received a public censure in Maine for agreeing to represent a client by defending a claim in small claims court; however he failed to file an entry of appearance. There was confusion between the client and the respondent as to his receiving notice of the hearing. Due to a communication failure, respondent failed to appear on the client's behalf and default entered against the client. The client informed respondent of the default, and respondent informed the client that he would file a motion to vacate, which he failed to do. Respondent's neglect of the client's legal matter constitutes a violation of Colo. RPC 1.3. Respondent was ordered to pay costs of the reciprocal discipline proceeding.
