John Nichols Shelton on Friday received a public censure from the Board of Professional Responsibility. Shelton failed to obtain approval from his client before filing pleadings and misrepresented to the court that a document attached to the pleadings had been filed in another court. He also failed to diligently represent his client’s interests and failed to adequately communicate with his client. Shelton provided a full refund to the client and expressed remorse for his actions.
