NOTICE OF REPRIMAND WITH CONDITION (By Consent)
Case No. 14-14-GA Notice Issued: May 28, 2014
Thomas J. Budzynski, P 26355, Clinton Township, Michigan, by the Attorney Discipline Board Tri-County Hearing Panel #104.
1. Repirmand 2. Effective May 28, 2014 The respondent and the Grievance Administrator filed a stipulation for a consent order of discipline, in accordance with MCR 9.115(F)(5), which was approved by the Attorney Grievance Commission and accepted by the hearing panel. Based upon respondent's plea of no contest, the panel found that respondent represented a client where the representation of that client was materially limited by the lawyer's own interests, in violation of MRPC 1.7(b).
In accordance with the stipulation of the parties, the hearing panel ordered that respondent be reprimanded and be subject to a condition relevant to the alleged misconduct. Costs were assessed in the amount of $757.61
