The complainant retained the attorney Nancy Tulloch-Darby to file an action arising from the death of her husband in a 1991 motor vehicle accident. The attorney failed to file the action in breach of her retainer, acting with inexcusable and deplorable neglect contrary to the Canons of Professional Ethics. The attorney did not appear. The Committee found the breach beyond reasonable doubt and ordered the attorney to pay the complainant $200,000 by way of restitution under section 12(4) of the Legal Profession Act. No express finding of dishonesty was made.
