2,372 charsexercised possession and control over them, evidenced
by her issuing two separate $10,000 checks out of the
account as donations to her church on June 7 and July
21, 2013. [Petitioner’s Ex. 5]. The respondent character-
ized the transaction as an honest one that had no nefari-
ous motive. In fact, the court finds that the respondent
had no intent through this deposit to deceive anyone
or deprive anyone of funds that otherwise rightfully
belonged to them. However, the fact that the respondent
returned the balance of the funds to the donor some
several months later does not excuse her violation. At
the time of the deposit, the funds did not belong to a
client of the respondent and had no connection to the
representation of a client. Rules of Professional Con-

As to rule 1.15 (c), it provides: ‘‘A lawyer may deposit
the lawyer’s own funds in a client trust account for the
sole purposes of paying bank service charges on that
account or obtaining a waiver of fees and service
charges on the account, but only in an amount neces-
sary for those purposes.’’ Given the facts found by the
court as recited above, there is clear and convincing
evidence the respondent has violated rule 1.15 (c) of
the Rules of Professional Conduct. There was no evi-
dence that the funds deposited were to pay bank service
charges. Further, the amount deposited could not rea-
sonably be thought to be for the purpose of covering
such charges, as they were tremendously in excess of
any amount necessary to do so.
As to rule 8.1 (2), it provides in relevant part that a
lawyer in connection with a disciplinary matter shall
not ‘‘knowingly fail to respond to a lawful demand for
information from an admissions or disciplinary author-
ity . . . .’’ The commentary to rule 8.1 provides that
‘‘it is a separate professional offense for a lawyer to
knowingly make a misrepresentation or omission in
connection with a disciplinary investigation of the law-
