Discipline Summaries

June 7, 2013

WILLIAM LYNN SMITH, Jr. [#242143], 37, of Glendale, was disbarred June 7, 2013 and was ordered to comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court and to pay sanctions.

Smith’s default was entered after he failed to respond to charges that he failed to obey a court order, failed to cooperate with a State Bar investigation, and made a misrepresentation to the State Bar. Rule 5.85 of the State Bar’s Rules of Procedure provides that a lawyer can be disbarred if he or she does not have the default set aside within 180 days. The charges are also deemed admitted.

In one of the matters he was disciplined for Smith failed to pay $6,034.50 in sanctions to a law firm and $1,800 in sanctions to the plaintiffs in a civil case. Smith failed to respond to a complaint made to the State Bar about his failure to pay the sanctions and then misrepresented to a State Bar investigator that he paid the sanctions when he actually had not.
