Discipline Summaries
September 7, 2007 IONE YOUNG GRAY [#74491], 60, of Los Angeles was disbarred Sept. 7, 2007. The State Bar Court review department increased the discipline recommended by a hearing judge, finding that in filing a deceptive renewal application for a real estate brokerage license, her actions were intentionally dishonest as well as grossly negligent. Gray already was suspended for four and a half years for crimes of moral turpitude, followed by unauthorized practice while she was on interim suspension.In September 1998, Gray filed an application to renew her California real estate brokerage license and falsely stated that she had not been convicted of any federal crimes. In fact, she was convicted in 1997 of two counts of bank fraud and two counts of fraudulent use of Social Security numbers. The conviction stemmed from applying for a loan by a federally insured institution in 1992 and 1993, Gray knowingly gave false information about her true identity, salary and Social Security number.In applying for the brokerage license renewal, the review department also found that she backdated the application to three days before the jury reached its verdict.While on interim suspension in 1997, Gray committed acts of moral turpitude on six occasions by holding herself out as entitled to practice."We are presented with a record showing respondent’s lengthy suspension in 2001 for moral turpitude felonies, aggravated by her circumvention of the effect of her interim suspension for those crimes," wrote Judge Ronald Stovitz for the review panel. "Her present offense, while perhaps narrower than what led to her prior discipline, shows an added and deceptive attempt to avoid the consequences of her earlier criminal conviction and also involving a professional licensing context."September 20, 2001 IONE YOUNG GRAY [#74491], 54, of Los Angeles was suspended for five years, stayed, placed on four years of probation with a four-year, six-month actual suspension, and was ordered to take the MPRE. Credit towards the actual suspension will be given for an interim suspension which began April 29, 1997. The order took effect Sept. 20, 2001. Gray was convicted in 1997 of two counts of making false statements on a loan application and two counts of fraudulent use of a Social Security number, all felonies involving moral turpitude. The convictions were the result of knowingly making material false statements in documentation she submitted in support of two loan applications. She provided a false name and Social Security number and misstated her monthly earnings.While suspended for nonpayment of bar dues, Gray accepted three cases for clients. She made three court appearances, filed a complaint and motions, and requested a continuance of a trial date. She stipulated that she committed acts of moral turpitude.In mitigation, she made her loan payments on time and the bank suffered no monetary loss as a result of her actions. There was no order of restitution.April 29, 1997 IONE Y. GRAY [#74491], 50, of Los Angeles was placed on interim suspension April 29, 1997, and ordered to comply with rule 955. Gray was convicted of violating Title 18 U.S. Code §1014, making a false statement on a loan application, a felony, and Title 42 U.S. Code §408(a)(7)(B), a felony. |
