In re Norton, Kimberly A., 07SH0037
Disposition Suspension for a specified period
Effective Date of Disposition 10/13/2009
End Date of Disposition 01/11/2010
Definition of Disposition Suspension for a specified period 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. The lawyer is not authorized to practice law during the period of the suspension.
Case Summary Ms. Norton, who was licensed in 1991, was suspended for ninety days. She took a sworn statement of her criminal client’s co-defendant without the prior notice and consent of the co-defendant’s lawyer. She also failed to turn over to her client’s new lawyer a transcript of the sworn statement, in which the co-defendant exonerated her client from participation in a crime. The suspension takes effect on October 13, 2009.
