The panel also found that respondent, in his handling of a criminal matter, neglected the matter, in violation of MRPC 1.1 (c); failed to act with reasonable diligence and promptness, in violation of MRPC 1.3; failed to make reasonable efforts to expedite litigation; and knowingly disobeyed an obligation under the rules of a tribunal, in violation of MRPC 3.4(c). In addition to the above misconduct, the panel also found that respondent violated MRPC 8.4(a) and MCR 9.104(1)-(4).
