Discipline Summaries

March 19, 2016

EDWARD MEDINA [#204880], 62, of San Diego, was disbarred March 19, 2016 and ordered to comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court.

The State Bar Court found Medina culpable of failing to notify clients and the courts of a previous license suspension and moral turpitude for falsely reporting to the State Bar he had done so. In another matter, he appeared in bankruptcy court on a client’s behalf while suspended. In addition, in 2014 he filed 129 documents with the bankruptcy court on behalf of his clients in various matters while suspended, engaged in acts involved moral turpitude and made misrepresentations in letters to the State Bar.

In mitigation, Medina cooperated with the State Bar and presented evidence of his good character.

His June 2014 suspension was for falsely reporting to the State Bar he was in compliance with his MCLE requirements when he knew that he was not.

July 9, 2014

EDWARD MEDINA [#204880], 40, of San Diego, was suspended from the practice of law for 90 days and ordered to take the MPRE and comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court. He was also placed on probation for one year and faces a one-year suspension if he does not comply with the terms of his probation. The order took effect July 9, 2014.

Medina stipulated that in 2012 he falsely reported to the State Bar that he had taken the required MCLE courses when in actuality he had not.

In mitigation, Medina had no prior record of discipline and entered into a pretrial stipulation with the State Bar.
