Discipline Summaries
April 22, 2006 ERIC LEE HOLT [#176153], 46, of Valencia was disbarred April 22, 2006, and was ordered to comply with rule 955. In a default matter, the State Bar Court found that Holt did not comply with a rule 955 requirement that was part of a 2005 disciplinary order. He did not submit to the Supreme Court an affidavit stating that he had notified his clients, opposing counsel and other interested parties of his suspension. Failure to comply with rule 955 is grounds for disbarment.The discipline was imposed for Holt’s failure to perform legal services competently or communicate with a client. He also was privately reproved in 2002 for failing to perform competently, and when he did not make the required restitution to his client, he was again privately reproved for violating probation conditions.March 6, 2005 ERIC J.
