On July 10, 2013, the Board of Disciplinary Appeals dismissed for want of prosecution the appeal of Laredo attorney Armando Treviño, 65, State Bar of Texas Card No.20211100, from a judgment of fully probated suspension signed on October 2, 2012 by the Evidentiary Panel for the State Bar of Texas District 12-1 grievance committee in Case No. S0011124798. Trevino did not file a brief and the Board issued an Order to Show Cause to Treviño on May 28, 2013. The Show Cause Order gave him 30 days to respond and show cause as to why the appeal should not be dismissed for want of prosecution. Treviño did not respond timely. He filed a motion to reinstate his appeal on July 24, 2013 and the motion was denied. Mr. Treviño appealed the decision of the Board of Disciplinary Appeals to the Supreme Court of Texas. Case no. 13-0588. The Supreme Court affirmed the decision of the Board on February 14, 2014. BODA cause number 51629.
