Discipline Summaries

May 27, 2015

GAGUIK BAGDASSARIAN [#157237], 51, of Pasadena, was disbarred May 27, 2015 and ordered to comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court and make restitution.

Bagdassarian was disbarred after his default was entered for failing to appear at trial in his discipline case.

Because he did not seek to have the default set aside with 90 days as required under rule 5.85 of the State Bar’s Rules of Procedure, he was disbarred and the charges against him deemed admitted.

Bagdassarian committed moral turpitude by misappropriating $42,397 in client funds earmarked for his client’s medical providers. He also failed to maintain client funds in trust and failed to promptly pay client funds.

He was ordered to pay $22,600 plus interest in restitution.
