Discipline Summaries

December 19, 2012

STEPHEN RANDALL HARRIS [#64176], 64, of Reno, Nev., was disbarred Dec. 19, 2012, and was ordered to comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court.

The Nevada Supreme Court disciplined Harris in 2012 after he misappropriated approximately $788,000 by making numerous unauthorized withdrawals from his client trust accounts and his law firm’s general client trust account. He used the money for personal gain. Harris reported his misconduct to the Nevada State Bar, repaid all the money to his client trust account and denied himself access to his firm’s accounts.

He stipulated that his misconduct in Nevada warranted discipline in California.

In mitigation, he had no prior discipline record, expressed remorse and took steps to repay the money, and he was alcohol dependent and suffered resulting emotional problems. He completed treatment for alcoholism and other mental disorders.
