Office of the Presiding Disciplinary Judge

People v. Heath.

No. 24PDJ078. 9/27/2024. Reciprocal Discipline.

November 5, 2024

The Presiding Disciplinary Judge approved the parties’ stipulation to discipline, imposed reciprocal discipline, and suspended John C. Heath (attorney registration number 38768) for six months, all to be stayed upon Heath’s successful completion of a two-year period of probation, conditioned on Heath’s compliance with the terms of his disciplinary probation in Utah. The probation took effect on September 27, 2024.

This reciprocal discipline case arose out of discipline imposed on Heath by the Third Judicial District in Utah, which approved Heath’s Utah disciplinary stipulation and issued an “Order of Discipline: Probation” placing Heath on probation for two years with conditions. Heath’s Utah case number is Civil No. 240904297.

Heath thus engaged in conduct constituting grounds for reciprocal discipline under CRCP 242.21, which calls for imposition of the same discipline as that imposed in Utah.
