Attorney Joseph Kaupie of Wausau, WI; ethical gremlin

 

The state of Wisconsin presented Joseph J. Kaupie with a law license in 1999 after he graduated from Southern Methodist University Law School.

 

The Office of Lawyer Registration (OLR) found Joey guilty of the following misconduct.

  • Had no contact with client regarding client’s appeal
  • Failed to cooperate with ethics investigators (Up yours, said Joey!)
  • Failed to file statement of transcript in appellate brief
  • Failed to send client’s file to successor counsel
  • Failed to perform meaningful work to advance client’s appeal
  • Failed to respond to multiple orders from court of appeals

As a consequence of his misconduct, the Wisconsin Supreme Court punished Joey by gifting him with a complimentary 5-month suspension of his law license.  

 

As we speak (ca. January 2016), Joey practices at 3504 Golf View Drive in Wausau,
