FINAL NOTICE VACATING ORDER OF REINSTATEMENT Case No. 10 -26-RP Notice Issued: November 16, 2011

Robert L. Wiggins, Jr., P 32359, Southfield, Michigan, by the Attorney Discipline Board, vacating Tri-County Hearing Panel #81's order of reinstatement.

1. Reinstatement Vacated 2. Effective September 9, 2011 Petitioner's license to practice law in Michigan was suspended for 180 days effective May 16, 2009. His petition for reinstatement, filed in accordance with MCR 9.123(B) and MCR 9.124, was granted by Tri-County Hearing Panel #81, which concluded, by a majority, that petitioner had

satisfactorily established his eligibility for reinstatement in accordance with those court rules. The panel also issued an order of eligibility for reinstatement with two conditions to be met before petitioner could be reinstated to the practice of law in Michigan. The Board received written proof

of petitioner's compliance with those conditions and an order of reinstatement with conditions, effective February 24, 2011, was issued by the Board.

The Grievance Administrator filed a petition for review and, after review, the Attorney Discipline Board issued an order vacating the hearing panel's order of reinstatement, effective September 9, 2011.

On September 12, 2011, petitioner filed an application for leave to appeal with the Michigan Supreme Court, as well as a motion for stay of suspension. On September 14, 2011, the Supreme Court denied petitioner's motion for stay, and on October 24, 2011, denied the application for leave to appeal. Total costs were assessed in the amount of $1 ,601.20.
