Such remedy should not, however, be enabled by the notion Mr. Warner was motivated to engage in hurtful behavior. The majority of the court concludes that the appropriate discipline is that of published censure. As the majority observed at the time of the panel hearing, respondent was suspended from the practice of law for failure to pay his registration fee and failure to comply with the Continuing Legal Education rules. The majority has ordered reimbursement of travel expenses for Jenette Gleason. The language is mandatory, not discretionary.
Respondent admits failing to follow the rule.
Respondent made false promises to pay a witness' expenses if the witness agreed to testify at trial. The majority agrees with the respondent's argument that he was not required to provide a final accounting to Deghand unless there was a recovery. Had respondent given Deghand an accounting of where her two payments were used and the total amount of the expenses incurred, respondent likely would have avoided Deghand's complaints. Instead, he refused to return telephone calls to Gleason, refused to pick up the registered mail containing her receipts, and refused to assist Gleason in her attempt to recoup travel expenses.
