Chutzpah
The Colorado Presiding Disciplinary Judge has approved a conditional admission and imposed the agreed sanction of a suspension for a year and a day with conditions of reinstatement for the following misconduct:
Respondent represented clients in immigration matters despite the fact that he had not been in this country lawfully since December 30, 1995. Respondent failed to disclose his legal status to his clients, the immigration courts, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services and its predecessor agency that he did not have authorization for employment in the United States.
