Discipline Summaries

November 1, 2013

MARK HAYWOOD GALYEAN [#220617], 45, of San Pedro was disbarred Nov. 1, 2013 and ordered to comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court.

Galyean was disbarred after his default was entered for failing to respond to disciplinary charges brought against him for failing to comply with several conditions attached to his prior public reproval. He was disbarred under rule 5.85 of the State Bar’s Rules of Procedure because he did not move to have the default set aside within 180 days.

Galyean was suspended in 2012 after stipulating to three counts of misconduct in two matters. He violated the terms of the 2011 public reproval by failing to contact the State Bar probation office by the deadline, submit one quarterly report on time or make restitution.

In a misdemeanor traffic case, he did not account for his client’s advanced fees or return her file for six months after the client canceled his services.

The earlier public reproval was for failing to return unearned fees or promptly return the client’s file upon his termination from employment.
