The order took effect Aug. 31, 2003. Milner stipulated to misconduct in two cases. One client hired him for several purposes: to help close escrow and distribute the sales proceeds of his home and to complete a bankruptcy for the client's company. A previous attorney had a conflict with the bank in question. Once escrow closed, the title company gave three checks to Milner, one for the IRS, one for the State of California, both intended to pay the company's taxes, and one for Milner's trust account. About $2,200 from the trust account money was for Milner's legal fees. The client hired a new lawyer to conclude matters with respect to the sale of his company, but Milner did not respond to four requests for information about the bankruptcy and the distribution of escrow funds. Although Milner took action to distribute the escrow funds and began preparation of some bankruptcy materials, he abruptly relocated his office and neither the client nor the new attorney were able to communicate with him. In the second matter, Milner did not comply with conditions attached to an agreement in lieu of discipline he reached with the bar in 2001. He did not attend ethics school, file a quarterly report or complete a fee arbitration. In mitigation, Milner has no prior record of discipline and he had financial problems. |
