Office of Disciplinary Counsel v. Washington
Opinion of the Court
We adopt the findings, conclusions, and recommendation of the board. By engaging a co-counsel without determining whether he would be able to perform his duties, respondent neglected the legal matter entrusted to him by the court. By being less than honest in his reasons for time extensions, respondent engaged in conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice.
Judgment accordingly.
