Discipline Summaries

January 3, 2009

EDWARD BAXTER CHATOIAN [#63957], 61, of Fresno was suspended for one year, stayed, and placed on one year of probation with a 30-day actual suspension. The order took effect Jan. 3, 2009.

Chatoian stipulated that he failed to comply with probation conditions attached to a 2006 public reproval. He failed to submit five quarterly reports, took the MPRE late, and missed the deadline for submission of a law office management plan. He subsequently submitted four plans, but each was deficient.

The reproval was based on his failure to perform legal services competently, return client phone calls, keep a client informed of developments in his case or promptly pay out client funds.

In mitigation, he cooperated with the bar’s investigation.
