In re Edgar, Lisa Michelle, 2021PR00027
(One of multiple dispositions on this case)
Disposition Suspension stayed in whole
Effective Date of Disposition 09/23/2021
End Date of Disposition 09/23/2021
Definition of Disposition The Supreme Court may order that a suspension be stayed in whole, typically in connection with an order of probation. A stay defers the suspension 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 Ms. Edgar was licensed in Illinois in 1990 and in California in 2005. The California Supreme Court suspended her for one year, with the suspension stayed by a one-year period of probation subject to conditions. She employed a former California attorney who had resigned from the bar with disciplinary charges pending and permitted him to handle client funds over approximately an eight-month period. She also filed a brief on appeal in a client's immigration matter without complying with mandatory legal authority concerning claims of ineffective assistance of counsel. The Supreme Court of Illinois imposed reciprocal discipline and suspended her for one year, with the suspension stayed in its entirety by a one-year period of probation, nunc pro tunc to November 21, 2020, subject to the conditions imposed in California, and continuing until she completes her California probation.
In re Edgar, Lisa Michelle, 2021PR00027
(One of multiple dispositions on this case)
Disposition Probation
Effective Date of Disposition 11/21/2020
End Date of Disposition 02/24/2022 Probationary condition(s) satisfied.
Definition of Disposition Probation reflects a determination that the lawyer has engaged in misconduct, but also a finding that the lawyer may continue to practice law pursuant to specified conditions under ARDC supervision without posing a risk to the public, profession, or courts. As a result, the lawyer may continue to practice law during the period of probation, subject to the conditions imposed by the Court. Probation may be ordered for a specified period of time or for a specified period of time and until further order of the Court. Probation may be ordered in conjunction with a suspension, which may be stayed in whole or in part. A stay defers that portion of the suspension 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.
