Professional Responsibility
Reinstatement
Where revoked attorney Elvis C. Banks failed to take the required CLE credits, failed to comply with the terms of his revocation, and failed to file tax returns, reinstatement is denied.
“After our review of the matter, we find nothing to indicate that the referee's findings of fact are clearly erroneous. We therefore conclude, as did the referee, that Attorney Banks has failed to meet the requirements for reinstatement to the practice of law in Wisconsin in multiple ways. Moreover, the shortcomings in his reinstatement petition are not mere technicalities; they go to the heart of whether Attorney Banks understands and would be able to conduct himself according to the rules of professional conduct and the obligations of a licensed attorney.”
