Attorney Myles Breiner of Honolulu; ethical misfit
Disciplinary Counsel found Myles guilty of the following misconduct.
Myles’ misconduct arose during his representation of a criminal defendant. Myles failed to abide by the trial court’s admonitions regarding:
The judge first cited Myles for contempt of court after he refused to desist from arguing during his opening statement. The trial transcript shows that Myles was stubborn, argumentative, sarcastic, and disrespectful.
The second instance of criminal contempt took place after Myles was disrespectful to a prosecution witness, Kanthi De Alwis, M.D. (medical examiner) while cross-examining her, and his condescending remarks to the trial judge.
As a consequence of being found guilty of criminal contempt on two occasions, the enablers for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Hawaii Supreme Court punished Myles by gifting him with a complimentary 180-day suspension of his law license.
As we speak (ca. September 2012) Myles practices with the Law Offices of Myles S. Breiner, ALC at 841 Bishop Street in Honolulu, Hawaii.
