Discipline Summaries

May 13, 2011

FRANK LADA KUCERA [#124617], 61, of Oakland was suspended for two years, stayed, placed on two years of probation with a 60-day actual suspension and was ordered to take the MPRE within one year. The order took effect May 13, 2011.

Kucera stipulated to 11 acts of misconduct in five matters.

He represented individuals who were sued by financial institutions, but in several matters he did not appear at case management conferences or file a case management statement and was sanctioned by the court. He didn’t pay the sanctions and thus disobeyed court orders and failed to show respect to the court. In one matter, the sanction totaled $1,000, but Kucera did not report it to the State Bar. Once the bar notified him it had opened an investigation, he arranged for the sanction to be paid.

He was privately reproved in 2000 for failing to perform legal services competently. In mitigation, he cooperated with the bar’s investigation. He missed court deadlines because he relied on a defective calendaring system.
