MISSISSIPPI BAR v. ATTORNEY HH

No. 93-BA-00609-SCT.

671 So.2d 1293 (1995)

The MISSISSIPPI BAR v. ATTORNEY HH.

Supreme Court of Mississippi.

As Modified on Denial of Rehearing March 21, 1996.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Charles J. Mikhail, Pascagoula, Michael B. Martz, Jackson, for Appellant.

William Liston, Liston, Lancaster, Winona, for Appellee.

En Banc.

BANKS, Justice, for the Court:

In this case we deal with the troublesome issue of an attorney who feels compelled to lend an impecunious personal injury client sums necessary to personal maintenance pending resolution of the injury claim. We eschew the temptation to follow the direction of our sister state to the west, Louisiana, and enforce our standards as written by subjecting the offending lawyer to a private reprimand.
