Office of Probation and this court with information regarding the terms and
conditions of respondent’s participation in the LAP and respondent’s compliance

Trial Counsel may file a motion for modification of this condition with the
Hearing Department of the State Bar Court, pursuant to rule 5.300 of the Rules
of Procedure of the State Bar. The motion must be supported by a written

affidavit or under penalty of perjury, in support of the proposed modification.
checked. c. Upon the request of the Office
of Probation, respondent must provide the Office of Probation with medical
waivers and access to all of respondent’s medical records. Revocation of any
medical waiver is a violation of this condition. Any medical records obtained
by the Office of Probation are confidential and no information concerning them
or their contents will be given to anyone except members of the Office of
Probation, Office of the Chief Trial Counsel, and the State Bar Court, who are
directly involved with maintaining, enforcing or adjudicating this condition.

ATTACHMENT TO
STIPULATION RE FACTS, CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
AND DISPOSITION
IN THE MATTER OF: JACQUELINE ANN MANGUM,
State Bar No. 114066
STATE BAR COURT CASE NUMBER: 12-O-16695
FACTS AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW.
Respondent admits that the following facts
are true and that she is culpable of violations of the specified statutes
and/or Rules of Professional Conduct.
Case No. 12-O-16695 (Complainant: Robert
Kay)
FACTS:
1. On July 25, 2012, Respondent’s client,
Robert Kay submitted a complaint alleging the commission of professional
misconduct against Respondent to the State Bar of California. On November 1,
2012, and December 4, 2012, a State Bar investigator mailed letters to
Respondent, which she received, requesting a written response to the
allegations of misconduct under investigation raised by Mr. Kay’s complaint, by
November 15, 2012, and December 18, 2012, respectively. Respondent did not
respond to the investigator’s letters, or otherwise cooperate in the State
Bar’s investigation.
2. The State Bar’s investigation into the
allegations raised by Mr. Kay did not lead to sufficient evidence to warrant
prosecution of the alleged misconduct.
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW:
3. By not responding to the State Bar
investigator’s letters, Respondent failed to cooperate and participate in a
disciplinary investigation pending against Respondent, in willful violation of
Business and Professions Code, section 6068(i).
AGGRAVATING CIRCUMSTANCES.
Prior Record of Discipline (Std.
1.2(b)(i)): Respondent has been a member of the State Bar since July 16, 1984,
and has been disciplined on one prior occasion.
On November 21, 2003, the State Bar Court
ordered that Respondent be privately reproved in case no. 01-O-04861, after she
stipulated to a single failure to perform in a wrongful termination matter
which led to the dismissal of the matter for failure to prosecute in January of
2001.
MITIGATING CIRCUMSTANCES.
Pre-trial Stipulation: Respondent is
entitled to mitigation for entering into a full stipulation with the Office of
Chief Trial Counsel prior to trial, thereby saving State Bar Court time and
resources. (In the Matter of Downey (Review Dept. 2009) 5 Cal. State Bar Ct.
Rptr. 151,156; In the Matter of Van Sickle (Review Dept. 2006) 4 Cal. State Bar
Ct. Rptr. 980, 993-994.)
Emotional/Physical Difficulties:
Respondent has provided medical records showing that, during the period in
which Respondent failed to cooperate with the State Bar investigation, she was
suffering depression which negatively impacted her ability to face her
professional obligations. Respondent has obtained medical treatment and is
making progress toward recovery, and is entitled to some mitigation
notwithstanding that these difficulties are not completely resolved. (See In
the Matter of Deierling (Review Dept. 1991) 1 Cal. State Bar Ct. Rptr 552,
560-561 .) Since June 17, 2013, Respondent has been receiving psychiatric
treatment from Dr. Robert P. Chang.
AUTHORITIES SUPPORTING DISCIPLINE.
The Standards for Attorney Sanctions for
Professional Misconduct provide a "process of fixing discipline"
pursuant to a set of written principles to "better discharge the purposes
of attorney discipline as announced by the Supreme Court." (Rules Proc. of
State Bar, tit. IV, Stds. for Atty. Sanctions for Prof. Misconduct,
Introduction (all further references to standards are to this source).) The
primary purposes of disciplinary proceedings and of the sanctions imposed are
"the protection of the public, the courts and the legal profession; the
maintenance of high professional standards by attorneys and the preservation of
public confidence in the legal profession." (In re Morse (1995) 11 Cal.4th
184, 205; std. 1.3.)
Although not binding, the standards are
entitled to "great weight" and should be followed "whenever
possible" in determining level of discipline. (In re Silverton (2005) 36
Cal.4th 81, 92, quoting In re Brown (1995) 12 Cal.4th 205,220 and In re Young
(1989) 49 Cal.3d 257, 267, fn. 11 .) Adherence to the standards in the great
majority of cases serves the valuable purpose of eliminating disparity and
assuring consistency, that is, the imposition of similar attorney discipline
for instances of similar attorney misconduct. (In re Naney (1990) 51 Cal.3d
186, 190.) Any discipline recommendation different from that set forth in the
applicable standards should clearly explain the reasons for the deviation.
(Blair v. State Bar (1989) 49 Cal.3d 762, 776, fn. 5.)
In this case, Respondent failed to respond
to two letters from a State Bar investigator seeking her response to the
allegations of professional misconduct by her client, Robert Kay.
The most severe sanction applicable to
Respondent’s misconduct is found in Standard 2.6(a), which applies to all
violations of Business and Professions Code section 6068 - a statute that
addresses a wide variety of "duties of an attorney" including, in
subdivision (i), a duty to cooperate with the State Bar’s investigation - and
calls for a range of discipline from suspension to disbarment. In this case,
however, Respondent’s depression impacted her ability to face her professional
obligations, including her obligation to respond to letters from the State Bar
investigator.
Standard 1.7(a) provides that, if a member
is found culpable of professional misconduct in any proceeding in which
discipline may be imposed and the member has a record of one prior imposition
of discipline, the degree of discipline imposed in the current proceeding shall
be greater than that imposed in the prior proceeding unless the prior
discipline imposed was so remote in time to the current proceeding and the
offense for which it was imposed was so minimal in severity that imposing
greater discipline in the current proceeding would be manifestly unjust.
Accordingly, pursuant to standard 1.7(a), a level of discipline greater than
private reproval is warranted for Respondent’s current misconduct.
Here, Respondent’s prior discipline in
2003, for failing to perform in a single client matter, is neither remote in
time nor minimal in severity, and therefore a deviation from Standard 1.7(a) is
unwarranted. However, the circumstances mitigating Respondent’s current
misconduct are significant. Specifically, Respondent’s depression during the
period of time that she failed to cooperate in the State Bar’s investigation,
as well as the progress she has made in treatment for that depression, should
be accorded substantial weight in mitigation, in addition to her mitigation for
her agreement to enter into a pretrial stipulation. These circumstances support
deviation from the "suspension to disbarment" level of discipline
called for by Standard 2.6(a). A public reproval is adequate and appropriate
under the circumstances.
COSTS OF DISCIPLINARY PROCEEDINGS.
Respondent acknowledges that the Office of
the Chief Trial Counsel has informed respondent that as of November 1, 2013,
the prosecution costs in this matter total approximately $3,779. Respondent
further acknowledges that should this stipulation be rejected or should relief
from the stipulation be granted, the costs in this matter may increase due to
the cost of further proceedings.
EXCLUSION FROM MCLE CREDIT
Pursuant to rule 3201, Respondent may not
receive MCLE credit for completion of State Bar Ethics School, State Bar Client
Trust Accounting School, and/or any other educational course(s) to be ordered
as a condition of reproval or suspension. (Rules Proc. of State Bar, rule 3201.
