Discipline Summaries

August 16, 2007

RICHARD LEE DAVENPORT [#51916], 61, of Reno was summarily disbarred Aug. 16, 2007, and was ordered to comply with rule 9.20.

Davenport was convicted of two counts of felony embezzlement in 2006 and has been on interim suspension since then. The crimes also amount to moral turpitude and thus meet the criteria for summary disbarment.

Although convicted in Nevada, the embezzlement would have been punished to the same degree as grand theft if it had occurred in California.

Davenport embezzled checks worth more than $2,500 that were entrusted to him as partial or complete litigation settlements.

RICHARD LEE DAVENPORT JR. [#51916], 61, of Reno was placed on interim suspension Oct. 19, 2006, after a conviction for embezzlement. He was ordered to comply with rule 955.
