Summary: Pursuant to a stipulation, the Commission publicly admonished a former judge who, while a judge, contracted with a public university to teach a class for compensation, which was inconsistent with an advisory opinion issued by the Washington Ethics Advisory Committee of which the judge was aware, and discussed legal representation with persons while a judge but after announcing his pending resignation. The former judge also agreed to make restitution to the university for the amount received as compensation and not to serve as a judge pro tem in any court in Washington for four years.
