Heading: The Silver Pick Matter

Text: Charles Bump, on behalf of Silver Pick Condominium Association (Silver Pick), a homeowner's association, hired Righter to collect delinquent assessments. Righter was paid $1,500 by Silver Pick on May 23, 1998 to do the necessary work. The $1,500 payment was deposited into Righter's personal checking account on May 26, 1998. By June 4, 1998, Righter's personal checking account had a balance of $0.71, reflecting that Righter had spent his client's funds. Righter mailed four form collection letters to four homeowners on behalf of his client. Thereafter, Righter took no further action on behalf of Silver Pick and did not respond to Mr. Bump's requests for information or his demand to return unearned fees.
