Heading: Father-in-Law's Affidavit

Text: Figliola also contends that the Board failed to consider his father-in-law's affidavit. The affidavit states that Figliola's father-in-law asked Figliola to remove funds from the escrow account and place them in Figliola's personal account. The affidavit does not state why Figliola's father-in-law requested this. Figliola himself stated that the request was made so his father-in-law could earn interest. There does not appear to be an error in the Board's decision, which is based on Figliola's own testimony, that he violated DLRPC 1.15(d) by failing to place his father-in-law's funds in an interest-bearing account.
