Olivo is in the pocket of developers and Bob Perry. She has run a dirty campaign and offended many people. She's been there too long and it's time for her to come home.

Actually Reynolds is backed by big Houston developers through his mayoral endorsement via Allen Owen. So please put all the facts out if you are going to marginalize her. Further see this about his TX bar problems and Texas Ethics Commission violations mounting up to $10,500 (the highest in the area):

COLUMN:Glossing over
District 27 challenger underplays his State Bar penalty

By Bob Haenel

Published: Wednesday, February 17, 2010 11:31 AM CST

Let me say up front, I made a mistake in a column on Jan. 27 with the vote count in the 2008 District 27 representative race.
I gave incumbent Dora Olivo too many votes, and challenger Ron Reynolds not enough.
In actuality, Olivo defeated Reynolds by 147 votes.

A slim margin, to be sure, and the catchphrase of the column “What Was I Thinking?” more accurately described my calculations, which were a regrettable mistake on my part.

However, the premise of that portion of the column still stands.
Reynolds could not defeat the incumbent Olivo despite the presence of a very popular Barack Obama on the Democratic Party ballot.
I had the honor of being one of the panelists at the Fort Bend Democrats Club candidates’ debate last Wednesday, and Reynolds and Olivo were the marquee pair at the event.

Co-panelist Bev Carter of the Star newspaper asked Reynolds about his sanction by the State Bar of Texas, the “thousand-pound gorilla in the room,” she phrased it.

Rather than being taken aback, Reynolds relished the question, reaching for satchel filled with photos and displays to show his post-sanction accomplishments.

Indeed, Reynolds said it was a mistake by a young attorney, paying little attention to the details.
Apparently, he had come prepared for the question.

Carter continued by peppering Olivo with questions about embryonic stem cell research, which Olivo opposed, and legislation regarding required ultrasounds prior to abortions.

Hmmmm. Was it a setup? Reynolds just happens to be vice president of the club...
Doesn’t matter.

Reynolds treated the action taken by the State Bar District No. 4F 12 Grievance Committee as if it was no big deal, but it was. Actually, it was three big deals, and one of them came with a price tag.

Reynolds didn’t just make one mistake, he was judged on three mistakes and had to sit out a year as an attorney, surrendering his law license from April 1, 2005, to March 30, 2006. He remained on active suspension (probation) through March 31, 2009.
That means he was on probation when he ran against Olivo the first time, and is only now less than a year out of hot water.
Completing probation was grounds for celebration for Reynolds, but certainly not grounds for a flippant dismissal of the three cases that placed him on the legal sidelines for a year.

Twice, Reynolds lost lawsuits for separate clients because he failed to respond to motions for summary judgments against his clients. Both lawsuits were dismissed with prejudice -- meaning thecases can’t be refiled -- and he didn’t notify his clients to inform them, either.

In the third case, he repeatedly failed to follow through with his client to inform him of the outcome
and actions needed to be taken, including having his client sign a final accounting and distributing of
funds settlement statement.

In one of those first two cases, the former client sued Reynolds and his firm, Brown, Brown &
Reynolds, Houston, and not only received a jury award of $100,000, but also $50,000 in punitive
damages after the jury finding of malice in the case.

Reynolds forgot to pull that out of his briefcase last Wednesday.
Here’s the question: Does District 27 want a state representative whose best claim is that he wasn’t
completely disbarred?

Reynolds still needs to explain the courts cases he botched and that got him sued and into hot water with the TX Bar and the courts. He also needs to explain the recent $10,500 fine given to him by the Texas Ethics Commission. Especially if he wants to handle billions of our tax dollars. Someone may also want to check the amount of debt his campaign is carrying too.

Ron Reynolds committed these rule violations against his clients, what would he do as a State Representatie representing YOU?

RULE VIOLATIONS
The acts and/or omissions of Respondent described above constitute conduct in violation of the following Rules of the TEXAS DISCIPLINARY RULES OF PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT:
• 1.01(B)(2) [in respresenting a client, frequently failing to carry out completely the obligations owed to a client or clients];
• 1.03(a) failing to keep a client reasonably informed about the status of a matter and failing to promptly comply with reasonable requests for information];
• 1.03(b) [failing to explain a matter to the extent reasonably necessary to permit the client to make informed decisions regarding the representation]:
• 1.14(a) [failing to hold funds and other property belonging in whole or part to clients or third persons in a lawyer’s possession separate from the lawyer’s own property];
• 1.14(b) [upon receiving funds or other property in which a client or third person has an interest, failing to promptly notify the client or third person]; and
• 8.04(a)(3) [engaging in conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit or misrepresentation].

….and that is just ONE the FOUR cases that cost Reynolds his license for 15 months and 2 overlapping probations completed June 30,2009.

Ron Reynolds has proven that he cannot be trusted to properly represent any citizen as a State Representative.

Good luck Dora Olivo.
