September 24, 2010 EDWIN TOLMAS [#35726], 74, of Los Angeles was suspended for two years, stayed, placed on three years of probation with an actual 75-day suspension and he was ordered to take the MPRE within one year. The order took effect Sept. 24, 2010. Tolmas successfully completed the Alternative Discipline Program, after stipulating to misconduct in three cases: he failed to perform competently, communicate, promptly return client files and unearned fees, and he appeared without a client’s authorization. He also violated probation conditions attached to a 2005 public reproval by failing to file quarterly reports on time, make restitution, attend Ethics School or contact the probation office. He was accepted in the ADP after demonstrating a connection between his misconduct and his mental health and substance abuse problems. |
