In re Novoselsky, David Alan, 2015PR00007
(One of multiple dispositions on this case)
Disposition Disbarment
Effective Date of Disposition 09/21/2020
End Date of Disposition No disposition end date scheduled at this time. Discipline continues until further order of the Court.
Definition of Disposition Disbarment is a determination that the lawyer has engaged in misconduct warranting the most serious sanction. The disbarred lawyer is not authorized to practice law during the period of the disbarment and may not return to the practice of law unless and until he or she has demonstrated his or her rehabilitation, good character, and current knowledge of the law in a subsequent reinstatement case, which may not be filed until five years after the effective date of the disbarment.
Case Summary Mr. Novoselsky, who was licensed in 1973 and who has been previously disciplined, was disbarred. During the pendency of a wrongful death case, he filed lawsuits in federal and state courts that contained baseless and false allegations against other attorneys involved in the case. He also attempted to remove a state court sanctions proceeding to federal court without any reasonable basis, and he falsely asserted in a court filing and an affidavit that he had been instructed by a circuit court judge to file certain pleadings. In a separate guardianship case, he filed a motion for sanctions against an attorney and motions for substitution of judge that had no objectively reasonable basis.

(One of multiple dispositions on this case)
Disposition Interim suspension until further order of the Court
Effective Date of Disposition 08/27/2019
End Date of Disposition 09/21/2020
Definition of Disposition An interim suspension reflects the determination of the Supreme Court that a lawyer should be suspended from the practice of law. In imposing interim suspension, the Court orders that the lawyer be suspended until further order of the Court and may impose such conditions as the Court deems necessary. The lawyer is not authorized to practice law during the period of the interim suspension. The Court may terminate the interim suspension upon imposition of final discipline or under other circumstances as the Supreme Court deems just.
Case Summary Mr. Novoselsky, who was licensed in 1973, was suspended on an interim basis and until further order of the Court. An ARDC hearing panel recently recommended that he be disbarred for engaging in multiple acts of dishonesty and filing frivolous and harassing pleadings in connection with a wrongful death lawsuit and filing frivolous pleadings in a guardianship action.

Disposition Suspension with condition(s)
Effective Date of Disposition 10/13/2015
End Date of Disposition 04/13/2016 Condition(s) satisfied.
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. Novoselsky, who was licensed in 1973, was suspended for six months and until he successfully completes the ARDC Professionalism Seminar. He neglected two client matters, failed to abide by a client decisions in another matter, made misrepresentations to clients regarding the status of their cases, failed to reduce contingent fees to writing, failed to communicate with a client, did not refund unearned fees to two clients, and made offensive and vulgar personal attacks on opposing counsel and a court deputy. The suspension is effective on October 13, 2015.
