Laureano was disbarred after her default was entered when she failed to appear at trial. Because she did not seek to have the default set aside or vacated within 90 days as required by rule 5.85 of the State Bar’s Rules of Procedure, she was disbarred and the charges deemed admitted.Laureano violated rule 9.20 in connection with a 2012 disciplinary order. She had been disciplined on two prior occasions. In 2011, she was suspended for failing to perform legal services with competence in two matters, promptly return unearned fees or promptly release client papers and property. The following year, she was suspended for appearing in court on a client’s behalf on at least three occasions when she knew that she was enrolled on involuntary inactive status and for failing to perform legal services with competence, render appropriate accounts to a client, refund unearned fees, participate and cooperate in a disciplinary investigation or keep a client reasonably informed of significant developments.August 11, 2012 MAYRA IVELLISSE LAUREANO, 46, of Santa Ana was suspended for one year, stayed, placed on two years of probation with an actual six-month suspension and she was ordered to take the MPRE and comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court. The order took effect Aug. 11, 2012.
