Discipline Summaries

May 20, 1998

KIRSTEN BETH ANDERSON [#140011], 43, of San Jose was disbarred May 20, 1998, and ordered to comply with rule 955 of the California Rules of Court.

Anderson was disbarred following her failure to comply with rule 955, a requirement of a February 1997 suspension order. That order was the result of her failure to comply with requirements of a 1995 public reproval.

The public reproval was based on misconduct in three separate client matters, as well as failure to cooperate with the State Bar and maintain an accurate address since 1993.

“[Anderson] has not participated in these disciplinary proceedings, which raises a grave concern that she has no regard whatsoever for her professional obligation,” wrote the bar court judge.

March 15, 1997

KIRSTEN ANDERSON [#140011], 42, of San Jose was suspended for 90 days and until she attends the State Bar ethics school, passes the MPRE and updates her membership address of record.

Should the period of actual suspension exceed two years, she will remain suspended until she has shown proof of her fitness to practice law. She also was ordered to comply with rule 955. The order took effect March 15, 1997.

Anderson failed to comply with conditions of a public reproval she received in 1995.

No mitigating circumstances were established, but her prior record of discipline was considered an aggravating factor. In its decision and recommendation, the bar court's hearing department wrote that Anderson's failure to participate in the current discipline proceedings prior to default showed a lack of respect and that she has repeatedly ignored disciplinary obligations.
