Description

Per Curiam. Once again this Court is presented with a disciplinary matter in which a licensed New Mexico attorney has wholly failed to comply with the requirements for maintaining his trust account. See SCRA 1986, 16-115 (Repl. Pamp. 1991 & Cum. Supp. 1994) (safekeeping property); SCRA 1986, 17-204 (Repl. Pamp. 1991 & Cum. Supp. 1994) (required records). The matter comes before the Court for consideration of a conditional agreement not to contest and consent to discipline executed by Stephen D. Turpen, approval of which has been recommended by the Disciplinary Board. See SCRA 1986, 17-211 (Repl. Pamp. 1991) (discipline by consent). We have determined that the resolution set forth in the consent agreement is appropriate, and hereby impose the recommended discipline of a two-year deferred suspension, with probation throughout the deferral period. If Turpen successfully completes his probation and the other conditions included in the discipline being imposed, he will be automatically reinstated to full licensure at the Conclusion of the two-year period.
