FRANK WADE HALL, ATTORNEY AT LAW, BUNCOMBE COUNTY, ASHEVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA" ], "opinions": [ { "text": "SHARP, Chief Justice.\nIn this disciplinary action respondent admits he entered a plea of nolo contendere in the Federal District Court to the charge of receiving and possessing chattels valued at less than $100 knowing them to have been stolen or embezzled (a violation of Title 18, U.S.C., \u00a7 659), but denies he committed the offense charged. The question presented is whether respondent\u2019s plea of nolo contendere entitles the State Bar to summary judgment authorizing disciplinary action against respondent. The answer is found in our decisions defining the legal effect of a plea of nolo contendere. Its consequences, long established in this State, are clearly articulated in the cases cited below and in many others.\nBy the plea of nolo contendere a defendant says only that he does not wish to contend with the State in respect to the charge. State v. Norman, 276 N.C. 75, 170 S.E. 2d 923 (1969); State v. Cooper, 238 N.C. 241, 77 S.E. 2d 695 (1953). Such a plea is not open to a defendant as a matter of right; its acceptance by the court is a matter of grace. \u201cWhen accepted by the prosecution and approved by the court it ends the case and subjects the defendant to the judgment of the court as if guilt had been confessed. But this plea has a double implication. So far as the court is concerned, in that court and in that particular case, it authorizes judgment as upon conviction by verdict or plea of guilt. . . . But so far as the defendant is concerned, he is at liberty in all other proceedings, civil and criminal, to assert his innocence, and his plea may not be considered as an admission of guilt.\n\u201c. . . Both the court and the prosecuting attorney may well decline to accept such plea in cases where the due administration of justice might be improperly affected, for when the plea is accepted it is accepted with all the implications and reservations which under the law and accurate pleading appertain to that plea.\u201d Winesett v. Scheldt, Comr. of Motor Vehicles, 239 N.C. 190, 194-95, 79 S.E. 2d 501, 504-505 (1954). See State v. Sellers, 273 N.C. 641, 161 S.E. 2d 15 (1968).\n\u201cThe basic characteristic of the plea of nolo contendere which differentiates it from a guilty plea, as unanimously accepted by all the courts, is that while the plea of nolo contendere may be followed by a sentence, it does not establish the fact of guilt for any other purpose than of the case to which it applies.\u201d Fox v. Scheldt, Comr. of Motor Vehicles, 241 N.C. 31, 35, 84 S.E. 2d 259, 262 (1954). See State v. Smith, 265 N.C. 173, 143 S.E. 2d 293 (1965); State v. Barbour, 243 N.C. 265, 90 S.E. 2d 388 (1955); State v. Thomas, 236 N.C. 196, 72 S.E. 2d 525 (1952). Its effect is a plea of guilty for the purpose of that case only.\nFollowing acceptance of the plea nothing more remains for the court to do except pronounce judgment. \u201cWhen a plea of nolo contendere has been accepted by the Court, and as long as it stands, it is not within the province of the Court to adjudge the defendant guilty or not guilty. . . . The judge can hear evidence. only to aid him in fixing punishment.\u201d State v. Barbour, 243 N.C. 265, 267, 90 S.E. 2d 388, 389 (1955). \u201cThus the super-added clause \u2018and was found guilty by the court\u2019 would be a misapprehension of the effect of a plea of nolo contendere in a criminal action, and could not be upheld.\u201d State v. Thomas, 236 N.C. 196, 202, 72 S.E. 2d 525, 529 (1952). See Annot., Plea of Nolo Contendere, 89 A.L.R. 2d 540, \u00a7 30, 584 (1963).\nThe principles enunciated in the decisions noted above were applied in In re Stiers, 204 N.C. 48, 167 S.E. 382 (1933). Stiers, a North Carolina attorney, entered a plea of nolo contendere in the United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina to ten charges of embezzlement of trust funds. He was fined and placed on probation. In a North Carolina disbarment proceeding, civil in nature and brought in the Superior Court, the solicitor for the State presented to the trial judge a certified copy of the indictment, plea, judgment and docket entries of the United States District Court. The trial judge dismissed the proceeding on the ground that the plea of nolo contendere did not amount to a confession of the crime charged. The State appealed and this Court affirmed on dual grounds: (1) the disciplinary statute (C.S. \u00a7 205 (1929)) gave the State no right to appeal an adverse decision and (2) \u201cthe mere introduction of a certified copy of an indictment, and a judgment thereon, based upon a plea of nolo contendere, is not sufficient to deprive an attorney of his license; certainly when he is present in court, denying his guilt . . . Id. at 50, 167 S.E. at 383.\nIn its opinion the Court of Appeals attempted to take this case out of \u201cthe general rule\u201d enunciated in In re Stiers and the other cases cited above on the ground that respondent Hall not only entered a plea of nolo contendere but the District Court judge, prior to imposing judgment upon the plea, \u201cadjudged that the defendant is guilty as charged and convicted.\u201d The Court of Appeals based its decision that the State Bar is entitled to summary judgment on the premise that the general rule \u201csimply should have no application where a judgment of conviction is entered on the plea.\u201d State Bar v. Hall, 31 N.C. App. 166, 174, 229 S.E. 2d 39, 44 (1976).\nIn our view the Court of Appeals misconstrued the effect of the District Court\u2019s judgment. Our research discloses no difference in the consequences of a plea of nolo contendere in this jurisdiction and the federal courts. On the contrary, it leads us to the conclusion that Justice Parker (later Chief Justice) was correct when he said, \u201cIt seems to be the law in all the State Courts and in the Federal Courts that a plea of nolo contendere to an indictment good in form and substance, has all the effect of a plea of guilty for the purposes of that case only.\u201d Fox v. Scheldt, Comr. of Motor Vehicles, supra at 35, 84 S.E. 2d at 262. See Fed. Rules Cr. Pro. Rule 11, notes 247-256; Annot., Plea of Nolo Con-tendere, 89 A.L.R. 2d 540, \u00a7\u00a7 27, 28, 30 (1963); 22 C.J.S., Criminal Law \u00a7 425(4) (1961).\nIn United States v. Reisfeld, 188 F. Supp. 631 (Md. 1960), after the defendant entered a plea of nolo contendere, the District Court judge entered judgment on a printed form which would permit its use when a defendant pled guilty or nolo contendere, or was found guilty by a jury or by the court. The form contained the provision which also appears in respondent Hall\u2019s judgment, ie., \u201cIt is adjudged that the defendant is guilty as charged and convicted.\u201d Thereafter Reisfeld moved the court to amend his judgment by striking out the quoted adjudication of guilt.\nIn allowing the motion Chief Judge Thomsen held that a judgment based on a plea of nolo contendere \u201cneed not and should not state: \u2018It is adjudged that the defendant is guilty as charged and convicted.\u2019 \u201d Judges Chestnut and Watkins concurred in Judge Thomsen\u2019s opinion, wherein he said: \u201cIt is not necessary that the court adjudge the party guilty; indeed, it has been held that such a provision in a judgment is not even proper. See 152 A.L.R. at 276; Rossman, Arraignment and Preparation for Trial, 5 F.R.D. 63, 67. However the judgment may be worded, the effect of the acceptance of a plea of nolo contendere and the imposition of sentence thereon is the same.\u201d 188 F. Supp. at 633. Citing numerous authorities, Judge Thomsen noted that while a plea of nolo contendere has all the effects of a plea of guilty for the purpose of the criminal case in which it is entered, \u201cit does not have the effect of an estoppel and cannot be used in any other proceeding as an admission of guilt.\u201d 188 F. Supp. at 633.\nIn footnote 8 to its opinion in North Carolina v. Alford, 400 U.S. 25, 36, 91 S.Ct. 160, 166-67, 27 L.Ed. 2d 162, 170, the Supreme Court noted:\n\u201cThroughout its history . . . the plea of nolo contendere has been viewed not as an express admission of guilt but as a consent by the defendant that he may be punished as if he were guilty and a prayer for leniency. Fed. Rule Crim. Proc. 11 preserves this distinction in its requirement that a court cannot accept a guilty plea \u2018unless it is satisfied that there is a factual basis for the plea\u2019; there is no similar requirement for pleas of nolo contendere, since it was thought desirable to permit defendants to plead nolo without making any inquiry into their actual guilt. See Notes of Advisory Committee to Rule 11.\u201d See United States v. Prince, 533 F. 2d 205 (CCA 5th Cir., 1976); United States v. Safeway Stores, 20 F.R.D. 451 (N.D. Texas (1957)); Annot., Plea of Nolo Con-tendere, 89 A.L.R. 2d 540, \u00a7 30 (1963).\nIn United States v. Safeway Stores, supra, after noting that Counsel for the Government had described the plea of nolo con-tendere as \u201ca plea of guilty in Latin,\u201d Judge Estes quoted with approval the following comment of the Committee which drafted the Federal Criminal Rules: \u201cWhile at times criticized as theoretically lacking in logical, basis, experience has been that [the plea of nolo contendere] performs a useful function from a practical standpoint.\u201d 20 F.R.D. at 454.\nAlthough not a basis for decision, in its opinion, the Court of Appeals \u2014 citing authorities from several other jurisdictions \u2014 recorded its view that \u201can exception to the general rule in this and other jurisdictions that a plea of nolo contendere cannot be used against a defendant in any proceeding other than the case in which it was entered should be made in the case of disciplinary proceedings against licensed attorneys.\u201d 31 N.C. App. at 174, 229 S.E. 2d at 44.\nWith reference to the foregoing comment of the Court of Appeals we reiterate the statement of Chief Justice Devin in Winesett v. Scheldt, Comr. of Motor Vehicles, supra at 194-195, 79 S.E. 2d at 505: \u201cBoth the court and the prosecuting attorney may well decline to accept such plea [nolo contendere] when the administration of justice might be improperly affected, for when the plea is accepted it is accepted with all the implications and reservations which under the law and accurate pleading appertain to that plea.\u201d\nThe statute under which State Bar instituted this proceeding, G.S. 84-28(2)(a) (1975), makes \u201cCommission of a criminal offense showing professional unfitness\u201d one of the groimds for disciplinary action against an attorney. As rewritten by 1975 N.C. Sess. Laws, ch. 582, \u00a7 5 (effective 1 July 1975 and codified as G.S. 84-28(b)(l) (Cum. Supp. 1975)), the corresponding ground is \u201cConviction of a criminal offense showing professional unfitness.\u201d (Italics ours.) Presumably the General Assembly understood the legal effect of a plea of nolo contendere to a criminal offense involving moral turpitude and constituting conduct showing professional unfitness. We note the omission from the statute of such a plea as a ground for disciplinary action against an attorney.\nWe have no doubt that respondent\u2019s plea of nolo contendere was entered and accepted in reliance upon \u201call the implications and reservations which under the law . . . appertain to that plea.\u201d Fundamental fairness would preclude making an ex post facto exception to the long established rule that the plea of nolo con-tendere has no effect beyond the particular case in which it was entered and cannot be used against the accused as an admission of guilt in any subsequent civil or criminal action.\nWe hold that State Bar is not entitled to a judgment as a matter of law on the uncontroverted facts in this case. Respondent\u2019s denial of the charge to which he pled nolo con-tendere raises a genuine issue of material fact. Thus, State Bar is not entitled to summary judgment. The decision of the Court of Appeals is reversed, and this case will be remanded to the Superior Court for the trial by jury as provided by G.S. 84-28(d)(l) (1975).\nReversed and Remanded.", "type": "majority", "author": "SHARP, Chief Justice." } ], "attorneys": [ "Christopher Bean and Harold D.

Criminal Law \u00a7 25\u2014 plea of nolo contendere \u2014 no admission of guilt for other proceedings\nA plea of nolo contendere, so far as the court is concerned, in that court and in that particular case, authorizes judgment as upon conviction by verdict or plea of guilt, but so far as defendant is concerned, he is at liberty in all other proceedings, civil and criminal, to assert his innocence, and his plea may not be considered as an admission of guilt.\n2. Attorneys \u00a7 12; Criminal Law \u00a7 25\u2014 plea of nolo contendere \u2014 no basis for disciplinary action against attorney\nWhere the State Bar relied on respondent\u2019s nolo contendere plea in a prosecution for receiving stolen goods as a basis for disciplinary proceedings, the Court of Appeals erred in basing its decision that the State Bar was entitled to summary judgment on the ground that respondent not only entered a plea of nolo contendere but the District Court Judge, prior to imposing judgment upon the plea, \u201cadjudged that defendant is guilty as charged and convicted,\u201d since a plea of nolo contendere has the effect of a plea of guilty for the purpose of that case only.\n3. Attorneys \u00a7 12\u2014 nolo contendere plea \u2014 no grounds for disciplinary action\nWhere respondent, a licensed attorney, pled nolo contendere to a charge of receiving and possessing chattels of a value less than $100, knowing the same to have been stolen or embezzled, the State Bar was not entitled to summary judgment in a disciplinary action on the basis of the nolo contendere \u25a0 plea, since the statute under which the State Bar instituted this proceeding, G.S. 84-28(2)(a), makes commission of a criminal offense showing professional unfitness one of the grounds for disciplinary action against an attorney, but respondent denied his guilt of the charge to which he had pled nolo con-tendere.\nOn petition for discretionary review of the decision of the Court of Appeals, 31 N.C. App. 166, 229 S.E. 2d 39 (1976), reversing judgment in favor of complainant entered by Rouse, J., at the 8 December 1975 Session of the Superior Court of BUNCOMBE, docketed and argued as Case No. 54 at the Spring Term 1977.\nComplainant, North Carolina State Bar (State Bar), is the State agency established by N.C. Gen. Stat. \u00a7 84-15 (1975) to hear and determine charges of malpractice, corrupt or unprofessional conduct, or the violation of professional ethics made against any licensed attorney of this State. G.S. 84-28 (1975). Respondent (Hall) is a licensed attorney. On 5 February 1975 State Bar instituted this action to discipline Hall upon allegations that he (1) had committed a criminal offense showing professional unfitness, a violation of G.S. 84-28(2)(a) (1975) and (2) had engaged in illegal conduct involving moral turpitude, a violation of the North Carolina State Bar Code of Professional Responsibility. DR1-102(A)(3), 283 N.C. 783, 786-87 (1973).\nAs the specific basis for imposing discipline, State Bar alleged that on 5' November 1974 in the United States District Court, Western District of North Carolina, Hall entered a plea of nolo contendere to a charge of receiving and possessing chattels of a value less than $100, knowing the same to have been stolen or embezzled, in violation of 18 U.S.C. \u00a7 659 (1970). Upon the entry of his plea \u201crespondent was adjudged guilty of said offense.\u201d\nHall\u2019s answer to State Bar\u2019s complaint admitted the foregoing allegation. However, he denied his guilt of the charge to which he had pled nolo contendere and asserted that he had not violated the laws of North Carolina or the State Bar Code of Professional Responsibility. He moved to transfer the proceeding to the Superior Court of Buncombe County for a trial by jury pursuant to G.S. 84-28(3)(d). This motion was allowed.
