Walton may have more than a missing $4 million to worry about ...

According to the RJ, Stan Walton also failed to file a formal answer to a Nevada State Bar complaint alleging he "misappropriated" $20,000 given to him by a client in an unrelated case.

Oh, and he may have been appointed as special prosecutor in a domestic violence case in which said client was the victim.

Oh, and he may have been "intimate" with said client.

Oh, and the complaint involves Walton recommending "gold Mexican bearer bonds" as an investment to said client.

See where this is going?

(LVRJ; Thanks, Tipster!)

Stan Walton's Visit to CCDC Was Over Missing Millions, Ignoring Warnings

Walton was appointed administrator over an estate that allegedly ended up with approximately $4 million in unaccounted-for funds. Walton apparently received "numerous warnings from probate court and several continuances" before being suspended as administrator of the estate in January 2009. Judge Cadish held Walton in contempt when Walton failed to appear for a judgment debtor exam after being admonished multiple times.

As an aside, what do you guys think is proper mugshot protocol for jailed attorneys - professional smile, or, as Mr. Walton went with here, silent rage?
