Professional Responsibility — public reprimand

Where attorney Amoun Vang Sayaovong committed seven acts of misconduct, a public reprimand is appropriate.

“We agree with the referee that the allegations in the OLR’s complaint have been established and that Attorney Sayaovong engaged in the seven counts of misconduct alleged in the complaint. We further agree that a public reprimand is an appropriate sanction for Attorney Sayaovong’s misconduct, and we agree that he should pay the full costs of the proceeding. Finally, we agree that Attorney Sayaovong should be ordered to make restitution of $2,000 to Y.Y.’s heirs and should be ordered to make restitution of $2,000 to L.Y.”
