In re Sayadian
Citation: Not availableDocket: 22-BG-810
Court: District of Columbia Court of Appeals; January 4, 2023; District Of Columbia; State Supreme Court
Original Court Document: View Document
Nema Sayadian is suspended from practicing law in the District of Columbia for 60 days, with the suspension stayed in favor of two years of probation, contingent upon compliance with the terms set by the state of Maryland, where he was also suspended for 60 days by consent. The decision follows a certified order from Maryland and a previous directive from the D.C. Court of Appeals requiring Sayadian to show cause against reciprocal discipline. Sayadian did not oppose the imposition of identical discipline. The ruling emphasizes a rebuttable presumption favoring identical discipline, citing precedent from In re Sibley. The order is issued per curiam by Judges Beckwith, Easterly, and Deahl.
