NOTICE OF SUSPENSION WITH CONDITIONS (By Consent)
Case No 08-75-RD Notice Issued: September 18, 2008 Katherine E. Jackel, P 68487, Ann Arbor, Michigan, by the Attorney Discipline Board Washtenaw County Hearing Panel #1.
1. Suspension - 2 Years 2. Effective May 1,2008 Based upon an order of suspension for professional misconduct entered by the Ohio Supreme Court on May 1, 2008, the Attorney Discipline Board assigned this matter to a hearing panel and ordered respondent to show cause why a final order of discipline should not be entered in accordance- with MCR 9.104.
The respondent and the Grievance Administrator filed a stipulation for a consent order of discipline containing respondent's agreement that she was afforded due process of law in the original proceeding and that imposition of identical discipline in Michigan would not be clearly inappropriate.
The parties agreed that respondent's license to practice law in Michigan should be suspended for two years, retroactive to May 1,2008, the date respondent's license was suspended in Ohio. The parties also agreed that respondent shall file proof of compliance with the conditions ordered by the Ohio Supreme Court. Costs were assessed in the amount of $755.66.
