December 17, 1995 ROBERT W.M. CROSS [#52305], 50, of Selma was suspended for one year, stayed, and placed on probation for two years, including an actual suspension of 30 days, effective Dec. 17, 1995. Cross was disciplined for practicing law while on involuntary inactive enrollment. Since he neglected to open any mail from the State Bar, Cross was unaware that he had been involuntarily enrolled as an inactive member at the time he made a court appearance for a client. In aggravation, Cross has a prior record of discipline. He was privately reproved in 1991 and later received a 90-day stayed suspension in 1993 when he did not meet probation conditions of the 1991 private reproval. In September 1994, he received a two-year stayed suspension with six months actual suspension and three years probation for misconduct in two client matters. In October 1994, his probation was revoked and the 90-day stayed suspension was imposed after he failed to file three quarterly probation reports. In mitigation, Cross suffered extreme emotional difficulties at the time of his misconduct, including the serious illness of his son. In May 1995, he voluntarily began a treatment program with a clinical psychologist in a effort to address his problems with stress. With the assistance of his probation monitor, he has set up a law office management plan and accounting system. In addition, he has completed approximately 56 hours of MCLE classes. |
