NOTICE OF REVOCATION Case No. 08-155-GA Notiee Issued: May 14, 2009 Dennis J. Mahon, P 42135, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, by the Attorney Discipline Board Tri-County Hearing Panel #61.
1. Revocation 2. Effective May 14, 2009 The respondent appeared at the hearing but was found to be in default for his failure to file an answer to the formal complaint. Based on that default, the panel found that respondent, in an appellate matter, neglected the matter; failed to act with reasonable diligence and promptness; failed to keep his client reasonably informed and to comply promptly with reasonable requests for information; failed to make reasonable efforts to expedite litigation; and knowingly misrepresented facts or circumstances surrounding a request for investigation or complaint.
Respondent's conduct was in violation of Michigan Court Rules 9.1 04(A)(1 )-(4) and (6); 9.113(A); and Michigan Rules of Professional Conduct 1.1 (c); 1.3; 1.4(a); 3.2; and 8.4(a)-(c).
The hearing panel ordered that respondent's license to practice in Michigan be revoked and assessed costs in the amount of $1,875.00.
