In re North, Gerald David William, 02RC1503
Disposition Suspension with condition(s)
Effective Date of Disposition 10/15/2004
End Date of Disposition
Definition of Disposition A suspension with conditions reflects a determination that the lawyer has engaged in misconduct and that the misconduct warrants both an interruption of the lawyer's authority to practice law during the suspension period, and the imposition of conditions with which the lawyer must comply. The suspension may be for a fixed period of time or for a fixed period of time and until the lawyer complies with the conditions. The lawyer is not authorized to practice law during the period of the suspension.
Case Summary Mr. North was licensed in Illinois in 1977 and in Arizona in 1985. He was suspended for six months and one day in Arizona for agreeing to an aggregate settlement without the consent of all of his clients and for unilaterally determining the amount of each client’s settlement award without the clients’ consent. He also failed to distribute promptly an award in another client matter, and he failed to communicate with a client. The Illinois Supreme Court suspended him for three months and until he files proof of compliance with the conditions of his Arizona discipline.
