On June 28, 2005, the Board of Disciplinary Appeals affirmed in part and reversed in part the Order of Disbarment against San Antonio attorney Robert Areche, Jr., 50, SBOT Card No. 01299125, issued by the evidentiary panel for the State Bar of Texas District 10B grievance committee in Case No. S0010311570. The Board found that there was not substantial evidence to find that Areche had violated Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct 1.01 (b)(1) (neglect), 1.03(a) (communication), or 1.15(d) (termination of representation). The Board found that there was substantial evidence to find a violation of Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct 8.04(a)(8) (failure to respond to the grievance committee). The disbarment and all sanctions were reversed and the case remanded to the District 10B evidentiary panel for a hearing on sanction.
