People v. Goldman.

No. 24PDJ088. 1/28/2025. Reciprocal Discipline.

February 28, 2025

The Presiding Disciplinary Judge entered default and imposed reciprocal discipline, disbarring Mark David Goldman (attorney registration number 19301). The disbarment was effective on March 4, 2025. Goldman is currently serving a three-year period of suspension that took effect on October 4, 2024, and a 30-day period of suspension that took effect on August 15, 2024.

This reciprocal discipline case arose out of discipline imposed on Goldman by the Arizona Supreme Court’s Presiding Disciplinary Judge, who issued a “Final Judgment and Order” disbarring Goldman on September 4, 2024. Goldman’s discipline in Arizona was premised on his abandonment of multiple clients’ cases, leaving his clients unrepresented, in default, and facing significant sanctions; his knowing violation of multiple court orders that needlessly expanded and interfered with court proceedings; and his previous suspension for similar misconduct.

Through this conduct, Goldman engaged in conduct constituting grounds for reciprocal discipline under CRCP 242.21, which calls for imposition of the same discipline as that imposed in by Arizona.
