摘要:This matter arises from multiple counts of
alleged attorney misconduct by the respondent,
John Michael Gassaway (Respondent).
Complainant, the Oklahoma Bar Association
(OBA), filed its initial complaint on March 26,
2004, alleging three counts of misconduct, and
an amended complaint on January 18, 2007,
alleging an additional twelve counts of misconduct.
A panel of the Professional Responsibility
Tribunal (PRT) conducted a hearing over
the course of several days in which voluminous
testimony and evidence were presented.1
The PRT found clear and convincing evidence
of attorney misconduct in six of the fifteen
counts and recommended disbarment. An
application for costs was filed by the OBA in
the amount of $17,587.92.
