In re Koehl, Daniel L., 02CH0116
Disposition Suspension for a specified period of time and until further order of the Court
Effective Date of Disposition 05/18/2004
End Date of Disposition
Definition of Disposition A suspension until further order of the Court reflects a determination that the lawyer has engaged in misconduct and that the misconduct warrants an interruption of the lawyer's authority to practice law during the suspension period, which is a fixed period of time identified in the Supreme Court's order and until the lawyer has demonstrated rehabilitation, good character, and current knowledge of the law in a subsequent reinstatement case. The lawyer is not authorized to practice law during the period of the suspension.
Case Summary Mr. Koehl, who was licensed in 1978, was suspended for two years and until further order of the Court. He continued to practice law while previously suspended for misconduct, misappropriated client funds entrusted to him to pay property taxes in connection with a real estate transaction, and made misrepresentations to his client about the status of that transaction.
In re Koehl, Daniel L., 99CH0098
Disposition Suspension for a specified period. Suspension stayed in part.
Effective Date of Disposition 11/28/2001
End Date of Disposition 04/28/2002
Definition of Disposition The Supreme Court may order that, following a suspension, a further period of suspension be stayed, typically in connection with an order of probation. A stay defers the further suspension period as long as the lawyer complies with probationary conditions. If the lawyer successfully completes probation, the lawyer is not actually suspended during any portion of the stayed suspension. Under those circumstances, the stayed suspension does not affect the authority of the lawyer to practice law and the lawyer may practice law during the stayed suspension. If the Court determines that the lawyer has failed to comply with probationary conditions, the Court may vacate the stay and may require that the lawyer actually serve the full suspension.
Case Summary Mr. Koehl, who was licensed to practice law in 1978, was suspended from the practice of law for five months, with all but the first two months stayed, provided that he complete courses in law office management and professional ethics. He neglected a client matter for more than three years and misrepresented the status of the matter to the client during that time. He ultimately created a fictitious settlement of the matter, paid the client from his personal funds, and misled the client as to the source of those funds.
