NOTICE OF REVOCATION AND RESTITUTION WITH CONDITION Case No. 06-132-GA Notice Issued: August 10, 2007 Keino D. Campbell, P 64409, Ferndale, Michigan, by the Attorney Discipline Board Tri-County Hearing Panel #61.

1. Revocation 2. Effective August 8, 2007 1 The respondent failed to appear at the hearing and was found to be in default for his failure to file an answer to the formal complaint. Based on that default, the panel found that respondent engaged in the practice of law in Colorado when he was not admitted to practice in that jurisdiction; published a false, fraudulent, misleading, and deceptive legal advertisement; filed a false answer to a request for investigation; and failed to answer to six requests for investigation. The panel also found that respondent failed to return unearned fees and failed to communicate with his clients in seven matters; failed to provide work or gave his clients inaccurate accounts of the work he was providing in three matters; and failed to appear at settlement conferences in two matters. Finally, respondent filed an inadequate complaint in one matter; improperly filed a complaint in another matter; and abandoned the representation of a third matter.

Respondent's conduct was in violation of MCR 9.1 04(A)(1 )-(4), (6), and (7); MCR 9.113(A) and (B)(2); and Michigan Rules of Professional Conduct 1.1(a)-(c); 1.2(a); 1.3; 1.4(a); 1.16(d); 5.5(a); 7.1; 8.1 (a); 8.1 (a)(2); and 8.4(a)-(c).

The hearing panel ordered that respondent's license to practice in Michigan be revoked, and that he be subject to a condition relevant to the established misconduct. The panel also ordered respondent to pay restitution in the aggregate amount of $10,870.00. Costs were assessed in the amount of $1,851.28.

Dated: AUG 1 0l007 1 Respondent has been continuously suspended from the practice of law in Michigan since May 16, 2007. See Notice of Suspension and Restitution With Condition issued May 23,2007.
