Description
The disciplinary counsel filed a formal complaint with the Colorado Supreme Court Grievance Committee alleging professional misconduct by the respondent, Charles J. Haase. A stipulation of facts entered into between the respondent and the disciplinary counsel, along with the evidence adduced at the hearing, were the basis of the findings and conclusions of the hearing board (Board). The Board recommended that the respondent be suspended from the practice of law for ninety days, but because of the existence of mitigating factors, that forty-five days be stayed, thereby reducing the recommended suspension to forty-five days. It also recommended that respondent be directed to pay the costs of the disciplinary proceeding in the amount of $1,127.79. A hearing panel of the grievance committee concurred in the recommendation and referred the matter to this court. We reject the recommendation because of the serious nature of respondents misconduct, and, accordingly, order that the respondent be suspended from the practice of law for six months.
