Discipline Summaries

May 19, 1996

JAMES ARTHUR WILSON [#60199], 53, of San Diego was disbarred May 19, 1996, and ordered to comply with Rule 955.

Wilson, a former San Diego Superior Court commissioner, was given a 60-day actual suspension and placed on one year of probation in 1994 as a result of abandoning a client's case.

Although he was ordered to comply with Rule 955, he failed to file an affidavit stating that he had notified all pertinent parties of his suspension. It was this failure that led to the disbarment.

This is Wilson's fifth disciplinary proceeding.

He was suspended in June 1995 for not complying with conditions of his probation imposed in the same disciplinary proceeding that gave rise to the Rule 955 violation.

Wilson also was disciplined in 1993 for failing to promptly honor a medical lien in a personal injury case. In 1986, he was privately reproved for failing to file an employment discrimination action because of his mistaken belief that he had been hired only to investigate the claim.
