February 10, 1996 PATRICIA L. RUTHERFORD [#106252], 45, of Glendale was disbarred effective Feb. 10, 1996, and ordered to comply with Rule 955. Rutherford's disbarment followed her failure to comply with Rule 955, a requirement of a 1994 disciplinary order revoking her probation. Rutherford's prior record of discipline was considered an aggravating factor in her disbarment proceedings. The 1994 disciplinary order consisted of a six-month actual suspension resulting from her failure to comply with probation conditions from a November 1993 order. The 1993 discipline involved failing to complete legal services and failing to return a client's file. She was placed on probation for one year, including 30 days actual suspension. Rutherford's failure to participate in the disbarment proceedings prior to the entry of default also was considered an aggravating circumstance. Rutherford had been a member of the bar since 1982. |
