People v. Grossman.

10PDJ096.Office of the Presiding Disciplinary Judge of the Supreme Court of Colorado.
November 5, 2010.

Attorney Regulation.
The Presiding Disciplinary Judge approved a Conditional Admission of Misconduct submitted by the parties and suspended Robert Mark Grossman (Attorney Registration No. 23980) from the practice of law for a period of eighteen months, all but nine months stayed upon the successful completion of a two-year period of probation with conditions, effective November 5, 2010. Respondent and his co-counsel represented a client charged with multiple felony counts for stealing $1.2 million from her employer. During two in camera conferences held without their client present, Respondent and his co-counsel made statements to the prosecutor and the judge related to their disagreement with their client’s decision to reject a plea offer and other statements to preserve their own interests and in-turn, failed to maintain the confidences of their client. Respondent’s misconduct constituted grounds for the imposition of discipline pursuant to C.R.C.P. 251.5 and violated Colo. RPC 1.2(a), 1.4(b) (2005), 1.6(a), 1.7(b) (2005), 1.8(b), and 8.4(d).
