Attorney Mark Cotton of DC; moronic slacker

The District of Columbia presented Mark A. Cotton with a law license in 2000.

The Office of Disciplinary Counsel found Mark guilty of the following misconduct.

• Failed to provide competent representation (moron)
• Failed to act with due diligence (slacker)
• Failed to return client files to client after being fired
• Engaged in conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice
• Failed to comply with court orders to file docketing statement
• Failed to notify court of change of address
• Engaged in illegal practice of law while license suspended

As a consequence of his misconduct, the apologists for Attorney Misfits sitting on the DC Court of Appeals Board punished Mark by gifting him with a complimentary admonition.

As we speak (ca. October 2016), Mark practices in Washington DC.
