Discipline Summaries

December 25, 2003

LEE SACKS [#59029], 59, of Malibu was suspended for one year, stayed, placed on two years of probation with a 30-day actual suspension and was ordered to take the MPRE within one year. The order took effect Dec. 25, 2003.

Sacks was convicted in 2002 of aiding a violation of a federal court order regarding frozen assets. He represented defendants in an FTC case whose assets were frozen as part of a temporary restraining order and later a preliminary injunction. Sacks was bound by the order.

His law firm received four payments totaling more than $77,000 from assets that were subject to the TRO.

The court later found Sacks in contempt, but said the contempt was partially cured by Sacks’ return of the money to the FTC receiver at the conclusion of the hearing. He was sentenced to six months in prison and supervised release for one year upon release from prison.

Sacks stipulated that his conduct warranted discipline. In mitigation, he has no prior record of discipline and he cooperated with the bar’s investigation.
