Suspension - 180 Days
Effective June 12, 2009
Respondent did not appear at the hearing and was found to be in default for failing to file an answer to the formal complaint. Based on respondent's default, the hearing panel found that respondent practiced law in a jurisdiction where doing so violated the regulation of the legal profession in that jurisdiction; and failed to answer a request for investigation. Respondent's conduct was in violation of MeR 9.104(A)(1)-(4) and (7); MeR 9.113(A) and (8)(2); and Michigan Rules of Professional Conduct 5.5(a); and 8.4(a) and (c).
The panel ordered the respondent's license to practice law be suspended for 180 days. Costs were assessed in the amount of $1 ,726.17.
