COLEMAN, JOHN B. II BPR # 004312
June 17, 1982 County:Maury District:6
Suspended for two (2) years by order entered June 17, 1982. He accepted a client's funds in
excess of $1,600 which were to be paid on the client's mortgage note. When the client received a
past due notice and inquired, Coleman stated the funds had been paid by money order; which,
upon investigation, the client found was false. He admitted to his client that the story was false
and obtained a loan to make restitution to the client. Also, there were five instances where he
mishandled bankruptcy matters by accepting retainers and filing fees and not proceeding in a
timely manner and his checks to the Bankruptcy Court for filing fees were dishonored. He
submitted a conditional guilty plea.
