Discipline Summaries

October 21, 2010

LAJETTA YVETTE WRIGHT [#207506], 43, of Corona was suspended for three years, stayed, placed on three years of probation with an actual one-year suspension and was ordered to take the MPRE within one year. Credit was given for a one-year period of inactive enrollment in 2007-08. The order took effect Oct. 21, 2010.

Wright successfully completed the Alternative Discipline Program (ADP) for attorneys with substance abuse or mental health issues. She stipulated that in one matter, she committed two acts of moral turpitude by misappropriating at least $26,417.69 of an organization’s funds and lying about her actions.

Wright was treasurer of the Black Women Lawyers of Los Angeles (BWL) and during five months in 2004, she wrote at least 14 unauthorized checks either to cash or payable to herself totaling $26,417.69. When questioned about the money, she falsely said holds had been placed on some of the checks written from the account, which then caused the checks to bounced.

Several days later, she variously admitted to taking $5,000, $10,700 and $12,000. Her admissions were false. She also altered check numbers in a Quicken software program so her treasurer’s report would not reveal that she had taken BWL’s funds.

In mitigation, she has no prior disciplinary record, cooperated with the bar’s investigation, made restitution, suffered severe financial stress and had family problems.
