Discipline Summaries

October 15, 2016

ERIC LEONARD NORDSKOG [#120935], 61, of Long Beach, was disbarred Oct. 15, 2016 and ordered to comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court.

Nordskog was disbarred after his default was entered for failing to respond to a notice of disciplinary charges. Because he did not seek to have the default set aside or vacated within 90 days as required under rule 5.85 of the State Bar’s Rules of Procedure, the bar moved to disbar him.

The charges were deemed admitted. Nordskog engaged in seven counts of misconduct in a single client matter. He repeatedly failed to perform with competence by not responding to defendants’ discovery requests, opposing their motions to compel discovery requests, opposing defendants’ motion for summary judgment or appearing at the summary judgment hearing. In addition, he failed to release a client’s file upon request at the termination of his employment and did not respond to client inquiries or inform his client of significant developments in his matter. He also terminated employment with his client without notice and did not respond to five letters from a State Bar investigator looking into the allegations against him or comply with a superior court’s order granting defendants’ request for sanctions.

In mitigation, he had no prior record of discipline.
