People v. Tametha D’Lyn Barker. 19PDJ014. June 13, 2019. The Presiding Disciplinary Judge granted a motion for entry of default and imposed reciprocal discipline, suspending Tametha D’Lyn Barker (attorney registration number 36797) from the practice of law in Colorado for two years, all to be stayed upon successful completion of Texas probationary conditions. Barker’s period of probation in Colorado took effect July 18, 2019.
This reciprocal discipline case arose out of discipline imposed upon Barker in Texas. In November 2018, the State Bar of Texas suspended Barker for a period of two years, all stayed with conditions of probation. This discipline was premised on Barker’s neglect of a client’s divorce matter as well as her failure to keep the client reasonably informed about the status of her case and to promptly comply with the client’s reasonable requests for information.
Barker’s misconduct constitutes grounds for reciprocal discipline under C.R.C.P. 251.5 and 251.21.
The case file is public per C.R.C.P. 251.31.
