REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON GRIEVANCES

To The Colorado Bar Association:

The Grievance Committee has met a number of times this year for consideration of complaints, the general nature of which is largely consistent with those of previous years. Most of the cases involved deal with matters for which disbarment could, perhaps, not be asked; others were matters where under the degree of proof required for disbarment, the necessary evidence could not be secured. Disbarment proceedings were determined upon in one instance, which will be under way in the near future.

The vast majority of the complaints emphasize the need of dealing with the average case by some method other than that at present employed. The Committee itself is able to come to a conclusion, but when it has done so, can only administer a rebuke which, in the nature of things, is known only to the attorney under investigation and to the Committee, itself. The profession and the general public remain in ignorance of matters which should be brought to their attention. Charges can be filed with the Supreme Court asking suspension or disbarment. This remedy, however, is harsh and not likely to be set on foot. In cases where it is appropriate, almost universally, the necessary evidence is not forthcoming. A public reprimand by the Committee, if proper authority were delegated by the Supreme Court, would be a most effective method of enforcing proper attention to ethical standards. The mere possibility of its use would accomplish more than the cumbersome and exacting methods at present in vogue. The situation is very much as though hanging or life imprisonment were the only penalty imposed by the criminal law for crimes of every degree and kind. A natural hesitancy follows toward the infliction of such a penalty for petty larceny; yet otherwise the criminal must go scot free.

Your Committee believes that if a proper committee had power to discipline attorneys within certain limits-subject to review by the Supreme Court in cases of disbarment and suspen
