Utah Down Syndrome Found., Inc. v. Utah Down Syndrome Ass'n
Annotate this CaseThis appeal arose from a disgorgement order issued by the district court requiring Attorney to disgorge $30,000 in legal fees he received for his representation of the Utah Down Syndrome Association and its founders and the Utah Down Syndrome Foundation. The order stemmed from a dispute between the founders of the Association and the Foundation. In the second of two lawsuits, the Foundation sued the Association and its founders. After discovering that some of the funds taken from the Foundation's disputed accounts were used to pay Attorney for his representation of the Association and its founders, the Foundation filed successive motions for disgorgement. The motion was granted. Attorney filed a motion to vacate the disgorgement order, which the district court dismissed. The Supreme Court dismissed Attorney's appeal for lack of appellate jurisdiction because, as a nonparty to this lawsuit, Attorney was not entitled to an appeal as of right.
