Discipline Summaries

November 3, 2005

E. ALAN NUNEZ [#62288], 64, of Fresno was suspended for one year, stayed, placed on two years of probation with an actual 30-day suspension and was ordered to take the MPRE within one year. The order took effect Nov. 3, 2005.

Nunez stipulated that he failed to perform legal services competently or report sanctions to the State Bar within 30 days.

He represented a company that lost a $250,000 bail bond on a criminal defendant who failed to appear at a preliminary hearing. After allowing two extensions to set aside the forfeiture, the court ordered no further extensions. The company argued the court lost jurisdiction over the bond because it didn’t make the bail forfeiture order in open court. The court denied the motion.

Nunez then began representing the company and in his brief, cited a case he had handled as grounds for making a forfeiture declaration in court. In fact, however, that case resulted in a ruling that such a declaration did not have to be made in open court. An appellate court found that Nunez made a frivolous argument and tried to intentionally mislead the court. It sanctioned him $10,000, but he did not report the sanction to the bar.

In mitigation, Nunez has no prior record of discipline, he cooperated with the bar’s investigation and he believed that his argument was correct.
