Public censure on May 19, 1985. He was hired to represent a client on a post-conviction petition
from a criminal conviction. Following denial of the petition, the client requested that he appeal
the decision. Van Sant failed to communicate with the client; did not apply to the Court for
withdrawal; and admitted that he neglected the legal matter.
