Discipline Notice:
Description: Dan P. Evich (WSBA No. 5615, admitted 1974), of Edmonds, was suspended for 30 days by order of the Supreme Court effective January 3, 2002. Mr. Evich was reinstated on February 10, 2002. This discipline was based on Mr. Evich’s willful failure to comply with a disciplinary-costs order.
In 1997, a hearing officer recommended that Mr. Evich receive an admonition. In June 1997, the Disciplinary Board entered an order assessing $1,337.57 against Mr. Evich. Although Mr. Evich had sufficient funds, he failed to pay the assessed costs. The Office of Disciplinary Counsel filed a new disciplinary action based on Mr. Evich’s failure to pay the ordered costs.
In May 2001, Mr. Evich sent the WSBA a check for $1,337, requiring that the Association place the money in a holding account until the disciplinary matter was resolved. The hearing officer found that Mr. Evich willfully failed to comply with the order assessing disciplinary costs against him.
Mr. Evich’s conduct violated RLD 5.7(i).
Jonathan Burke represented the Bar Association. Mr. Evich represented himself. The hearing officer was Michael L. Lewis.
