State ex rel. Okl. Bar Ass'n v. Herlihy11/26/1991 a Bar Ass'n v. Moore, 741 P.2d 445 (Okl. 1987) (quoting Raskin and disbarring attorney who argued similar mitigating factors). Respondent's mitigating factors bear little weight in light of the clear violations of rules of professional responsibility.
DISCIPLINE
Considering the aggravating factor of respondent's misrepresentation to the trial court TOGETHER with the conversion of client funds, we find that disbarment is warranted in this case, and IT IS HEREBY ORDERED AND DECREED THAT RESPONDENT BE DISBARRED and his name stricken from the roll of attorneys. Respondent is further ordered to pay costs of the proceedings in the sum of $1,212.50 within thirty (30) days of the date this opinion becomes final.
OPALA, C.J., and LAVENDER, DOOLIN, HARGRAVE, ALMA WILSON and SUMMERS, JJ., concur.
