Rejecting a recommendation of disbarment, the New Jersey Supreme Court has suspended veteran litigator David Gross for three months for not telling his law firm partners about a $50,000 bonus from a satisfied client. The court found a lack of "clear and convincing" evidence that Gross failed to safeguard funds or knowingly misappropriated funds in violation of professional conduct rules, but said there was clear and convincing evidence of conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit or misrepresentation.
