Attorney Bryon Smith of Jacksonville, NC; ethical goblin

The state of North Carolina provided Bryon M. Smith with a law license in 1989 after he graduated from the University of Arkansas Law School.

The Committee on Professional Conduct found Bryon guilty of the following misconduct.

• Violated multiple trust accounting rules
• Failed to maintain client ledges
• Failed to perform mandatory quarterly reconciliations of his trust account
• Failed to identify the client and source of funds on deposit slips
• Failed to maintain persona funds on deposit for payment of bank charges
• Failed to deposit mixed funds into his trust account

As a direct consequence of his misconduct the cheerleaders for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Committee on Professional Conduct punished Bryon by gifting him with a third complimentary stayed 2-year suspension of his law license.

In truth, the comedians sitting on the Committee on Professional Conduct didn’t mete out any meaningful punishment to Bryon.
