January 8, 2014 DAVID HAYDEN LOOMIS [#110940], 64, of Victorville was disbarred Jan. 8, 2014 and ordered to comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court. Loomis was disbarred after his default was entered when he failed to appear at trial on charges he violated rule 9.20 in conjunction with a 2011 disciplinary order. Because he made no effort to have the default set aside within 90 days, as required by rule 5.85 of the State Bar’s Rules of Procedure, he was disbarred and the charges against him were deemed admitted.Loomis was previously suspended for failing to maintain the proper balance in his client trust account.November 18, 2011 DAVID HAYDEN LOOMIS, 62, of Victorville was suspended for two years, stayed, placed on three years of probation with a one-year actual suspension and until he makes restitution, and he was ordered to take the MPRE and comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court. If the actual suspension exceeds two years, he must prove his rehabilitation. The order took effect Nov. 18, 2011. Loomis stipulated that he failed to maintain the proper balance in his client trust account. His client, a financial services company, gave Loomis $40,000 for costs associated with his employment. When he was terminated, his trust account held only $13,155.56, all belonging to the client. Despite demands from the company that he return $13,000, Loomis withdrew all the money while involved in a business dispute.In mitigation, Loomis had no discipline record in almost 30 years of practice, and the misconduct was an isolated and aberrational incident. The dispute with his client caused him significant financial and emotional distress. |
