Park v. People.

No. 24PDJ071. 3/31/2025. Opinion Denying Reinstatement Under CRCP 242.39.

June 27, 2025

Matthew S. Park was suspended for one year and one day in October 2020. He was disciplined for practicing law while he was administratively suspended and for comingling his own funds with those belonging to his client and to a third party. Though Park was required to serve only three months of his suspension, after which he would be subject to a two-year period of probation, he did not seek to reinstate to the practice of law until November 2021, necessitating that he petition to reinstate his law license. A hearing board denied that petition. In this reinstatement proceeding, Park again failed to demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that he is rehabilitated from his misconduct, that he has complied with all disciplinary rules and orders, and that he is fit to practice law. He was thus not entitled to be reinstated to the practice of law in Colorado.
