OWENS, JOHN B. JR. BPR # 005704
April 07, 1994 County:Williamson District:6
Public censure on April 7, 1994. Owens let certain deadlines pass and after his clients
terminated his services, refused to turn over their files to substitute counsel for 8 months. He
also failed to respond to substitute counsel. The Board recommended a public censure on March
26, 1992, but Owens rejected the offer and requested a hearing in this matter. A petition for
discipline was filed against him which he failed to respond to and a default judgment was
granted by the hearing panel.
