Discipline Summaries

May 16, 2003

PAUL SEIICHI SUGINO [#108945], 52, of Santa Barbara was suspended for one year, stayed, actually suspended for 30 days and until the State Bar Court grants a motion to end the suspension, and was ordered to take the MPRE. If the actual suspension exceeds two years, he must prove his rehabilitation. The order took effect May 16, 2003.

Sugino pleaded no contest to reckless driving, admitting that his offense included the consumption of alcohol. In exchange for the plea, charges of driving under the influence, driving with a blood alcohol level in excess of .08 and hit and run with property damage were dropped.

He also was convicted of reckless driving with alcohol involved in 1995.

Although Sugino did not participate in the disciplinary proceeding, the bar court noted that he practiced for 18 years without a discipline record.
