In Re Stover

This matter was referred to Willard W. Shea, Esq., to take testimony and report the facts to this court. His report is adopted as part of this opinion and is as follows:

While the facts, as above set forth, are quite different, we are of the opinion that the language used by the supreme court in In re Wells, 174 Cal. 467, at 476 [ 163 Pac. 657 ], is also applicable here: “While this conduct may not show great depravity of character, we think it must be admitted that it indicates in the respondent a want of that sincerity and integrity which the law demands of those who are to be allowed the privilege of practicing law.”

The findings of the commissioner are sufficient to support the conclusion of the board of bar examiners and the application is, therefore, denied.
