C.r.c.p. 242.39
COMMENT
Under C.R.C.P. 242.39(a)(2), the requirement to petition for reinstatement applies: (1) when a lawyer has remained suspended for more than one year due to the lawyer's failure to timely seek reinstatement by affidavit under C.R.C.P. 242.38, even if the lawyer's ordered period of suspension was for less than one year and one day; (2) when, in connection with a single disciplinary proceeding, a lawyer serves a suspension that cumulatively totals more than one year due to revocation of the lawyer's probation, even if the lawyer does not serve the period of suspension continuously; and (3) when, in connection with separate disciplinary proceedings, a lawyer serves consecutive suspensions that cumulatively total more than one year. Interim suspensions and nondisciplinary suspensions that are contiguously served with a disciplinary suspension are not used to calculate the duration of the served disciplinary suspension for purposes of determining whether a lawyer must petition for reinstatement under C.R.C.P. 242.39(a)(2).
