July 28, 2012 JOHN RANDALL FAITH, 65, of Covina was disbarred July 28, 2012, and was ordered to comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court. Faith’s default was entered after he failed to respond to a notice of disciplinary charges or participate in disciplinary proceedings against him.In September 2010, he was suspended and ordered to comply with rule 9.20 as a result of writing two checks against insufficient funds, improperly withdrawing from employment and failing to release client files, respond to client inquiries and cooperate with the State Bar. He did not comply with rule 9.20 by failing to file with the State Bar Court a declaration that he notified his clients, opposing counsel and other interest parties of his suspension. Failure to comply with the rule is grounds for disbarment.October 28, 2010 JOHN RANDALL FAITH [#50474], 64, of Covina was suspended for two years, stayed, actually suspended for six months and until the State Bar Court grants a motion to terminate the suspension and he was ordered to take the MPRE and comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court. If the actual suspension exceeds two years, he must prove his rehabilitation. The order took effect Oct. 28, 2010. In a default proceeding, the bar court found that Faith committed seven acts of misconduct in three matters.In 2000, Faith was hired to handle various business matters for a client and his company. When the client died, his son hired Faith to handle the probate matter. Although he filed a petition to probate the will and a petition to administer the estate, he did no further work and the son never was able to contact him.Faith also wrote checks against insufficient funds in his client trust account, committing acts of moral turpitude, and he did not respond to a bar investigator’s inquiries about another client’s complaints.State Bar Court Judge Donald Miles found that Faith abandoned a client, failed to release a client’s file, respond to client inquiries or cooperate with the bar’s investigations and he committed acts of moral turpitude.In mitigation, he has no prior discipline record. |
