NEW YORK, NY (HBN) – A Manhattan judge has fined an attorney $8,500 for bad behavior. The behavior cited, according to the Thursday edition of the New York Law Journal, includes barking like a dog at a witness.
State Supreme Court Justice Charles Ramos wrote that attorney David Fink’s behavior was the cause of “serious concerns about fitness to practice law.”
According to a transcript cited by the law journal, a party opposing Fink in a recent case said that he had received various “mad-dog lawyer’s letters” which were quite threatening.
The attorney is accused of yelping and making all kinds of racket during the deposition of a designer. This was a designer whom Fink’s client, Carl Levine, was suing for alleged breach of contract.
During a deposition in the recent contract dispute case, opposing party Kit Kittle spoke about one such “mad-dog” letter. Fink barked at him profusely.
According to the journal, Fink said he was “clearing his throat”.
