People v. Worth, 04PDJ090. January 7, 2005. Attorney Regulation. The Presiding Disciplinary Judge approved the parties’ Conditional Admission of Misconduct and suspended Respondent Anthony L. Worth (Registration #3330) from the practice of law for a period of seven months, effective February 7, 2005. This is a reciprocal discipline case. Respondent lives and practices in Oregon, where he was sanctioned in two disciplinary proceedings. Under C.R.C.P. 251.21(a), a final adjudication of misconduct subjecting an attorney to discipline in another jurisdiction conclusively establishes the misconduct in Colorado disciplinary proceedings. The Oregon Supreme Court found that Respondent neglected three post-conviction relief matters, while failing to return a document of importance to a client and failing to provide full, truthful, and timely responses to inquiries. The Oregon Supreme Court also found that Respondent failed to prosecute a landlord-tenant dispute on behalf of the tenant, which resulted in dismissal of the case. Further, Respondent made knowing misrepresentations to the trial court. Therefore, Respondent violated Colo. RPC 1.1 (failure to provide competent representation), 1.3 (neglect of an entrusted legal matter), 1.16(a)(1) (failure to withdraw when representation will result in a violation of the rules of professional conduct), 1.16(d) (failure to surrender papers and property upon termination), 3.3(a)(1) (false statement of material fact or law to a tribunal), 8.4(c) (conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit or misrepresentation), and 8.4(d) (conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice). In accordance with C.R.C.P. 251.21(d), the sanction is the same as imposed in the foreign jurisdiction. In addition, Respondent was ordered to pay costs incurred in conjunction with this proceeding.
