In re Pellenz, 2012 VT
39 (mem.).
Today’s case is a whole four paragraphs. I will try to be shorter. Respondent was an attorney in New Hampshire
with a license in Vermont.
In March of this year, Respondent was disciplined by the
Supreme Court in New Hampshire for trying to get a witness to withhold
testimony and leave the state. Respondent
tried to resign, but the New Hampshire Supreme Court refused his effort and
disbarred him.
Now it is Vermont’s turn.
The rule is: disbarred in one jurisdiction, disbarred in all. So the SCOV, after an opportunity for a
hearing, finds no reason to stay the reciprocal penalty, and Respondent is
disbarred.
