Description
This is a disciplinary proceeding against an attorney, Stanley P. Cornelius (hereinafter after referred to as respondent). The trial committee of the Alaska Bar Association recommended, and such recommendations were adopted by the Board of Governors of the Bar Association, that respondent be suspended from the practice of law for up to 42 months. This suspension was recommended because the committee found against the respondent on four counts of a five-count complaint. The four counts which were proved charged that respondent, through his activities in a particular business venture, had violated several of the Alaska Bar Rules and the Canons of Professional Ethics. The major charges were that respondent had suborned litigation, solicited professional employment, and entered into a partnership between lawyers and non-lawyers were part of the employment consisted of the practice of law; and that respondent had wrongfully converted, to his own use and benefit, money entrusted to him and took advantage of the confidence reposed in him by his clients. The facts underlying the complaint and subsequent disciplinary recommendation are complex and detailed, but an exposition of the main features is necessary in order to reveal the basis for the disciplinary action.
