FINAL NOTICE OF REINSTATEMENT WITH CONDITIONS Case No. 08-76-RP Notice Issued: May 28, 2009
Michael J. Shovan, P 43362, Saginaw, Michigan, by the Attorney Discipline Board. 1. Reinstated 2. Effective May 27,2009 Petitioner's license to practice law in Michigan was suspended for four years on September 9, 2002. His petition for reinstatement, filed in accordance with MeR 9.123(8) and MCR 9.124, was granted by Tri-Valley Hearing Panel #1, which concluded that petitioner had satisfactorily
established his eligibility for reinstatement in accordance with those court rules.
On October 27,2008, the hearing panel issued an order of eligibility for reinstatement with specific conditions that must be met before petitioner could be fully reinstated to the practice of law in Michigan. The Board received written proof petitioner's compliance with those conditions on May 27,2009, and his reinstatement to the practice of law in Michigan is deemed to be effective on that date. The hearing panel also imposed additional conditions effective upon petitioner's active reinstatement to the practice of law in Michigan. Costs were assessed in the amount of $901.47.
