Discipline Summaries

December 24, 2004

TAM NGUYEN [#159601], 48, of San Jose was suspended for five years, stayed, placed on five years of probation with a 45-day actual suspension and was ordered to take the MPRE within one year. The order took effect Dec. 24, 2004.

Nguyen stipulated that he misused his client trust account by writing checks against insufficient funds, releasing checks to clients prior to their funds actually being in the account and depositing and commingling personal and client funds.

In mitigation, Nguyen’s clients demanded the immediate release of settlement funds and he felt an obligation to comply with their demands, even when settlement checks had not cleared. He has no prior record of discipline and he cooperated with the bar’s investigation.
