Heading: Count Eight: The Sharon Sanders Grievance.

Text: ¶ 42 Sharon Sanders sent a grievance letter to the Bar in late August or early September 1998. On 3 November 1998, the Bar mailed a letter to respondent pursuant to RGDP Rule 5.2, requesting a response to the grievance within twenty (20) days. Respondent received but did not respond to this letter. On 1 December 1998, the Bar sent respondent a letter by certified mail, requesting a response to Sanders' grievance within five (5) days. The post office made three unsuccessful attempts to deliver the letter to respondent, who did not go to the post office to claim it. A subpoena duces tecum was issued for respondent's deposition, which was taken on 23 February 1999. At that time Minter provided a written response to the grievance. ¶ 43 The trial panel concluded that respondent violated RGDP Rule 5.2. We agree.
