Prepared by The Florida Bar's Public Information and Bar Services Department

The Florida Supreme Court in recent court orders disciplined 21 attorneys--disbarring three, revoking the licenses of four, suspending 12, and publicly reprimanding two. Two attorneys received more than one form of discipline. One attorney was ordered to pay restitution; another was also placed on probation.

Aguero collected property taxes totaling more than $6,500, but he never remitted the funds to the Miami-Dade County Tax Collector.
