Respondent was also found to have failed to answer four requests for investigation served upon him by the Grievance Administration.
Respondent's conduct was in violation of MCR 9.104(A)(I )-(4) and (7); MCR 9.1 13(A) and (B)(2); and Michigan Rules of Professional Conduct I .I ( a)-(c); 1.2(a); 1.3; 1.4(a); 1. I6 (d); 5.5(a); 8. I( a)(2); and 8.4(a)-(c).
The hearing panel ordered that respondent's license to practice in Michigan be suspended for one year, 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 $1 ,I8 0.00. Costs were assessed in the amount of $1,775.09.
