People v. Flowers (revised). 12PDJ051. September 12, 2012. Attorney Regulation. The Presiding Disciplinary Judge suspended Carol Ann Flowers (Attorney Registration Number 18663) from the practice of law for a period of ninety days, all stayed upon the successful completion of a two-year period of probation, subject to conditions, effective September 12, 2012. Flowers overbilled the Office of the Child Representative (“OCR”), for whom she has contracted as a guardian ad litem, in the amount of over $30,000.00 in fiscal year 2011. She double-billed OCR and she also billed for travel time to court in violation of a new OCR policy. Flowers has since repaid OCR. Her misconduct constitutes grounds for the imposition of discipline pursuant to C.R.C.P. 251.5 and violated Colo. RPC 1.5(a) and 8.4(c).
