Discipline Summaries

October 29, 2009

IRA DAVID JOHNS [#86179], 58, of Northridge was suspended for six months, stayed, placed on two years of probation and was ordered to take the MPRE within one year. The order took effect Oct. 29, 2009.

After stipulating to misconduct in three matters, Johns was accepted in 2005 in the State Bar’s Alternative Discipline Program for lawyers with substance abuse or mental health issues. He completed the program successfully and began his six-month stayed suspension Oct. 29.

In each case, Johns admitted that he failed to perform legal services with competence or properly maintain client funds in his trust account. In two matters, he also failed to respond to client status inquires or keep his client informed of significant developments in his case.

In mitigation, he had no prior record of discipline, suffered from severe financial stress, cooperated with the bar’s investigation and had other difficulties in his personal life.
