NOTICE OF REVOCATION Case No: 07-34-GA Notice Issued: August. 27,2008 Harvey J. Zameck, P 22687, Southfield, Michigan, by the Attorney Discipline Tri-County Hearing Panel #60.
1. Revocation 2. Effective October 9, 2006 1 The respondent appeared at the hearing but was found to be in default for his failure to file an answer to the formal complaint.

Respondent's conduct was in violation of MCR 9.1 04(A)(1 )-(4); and Michigan Rules of Professional Conduct 1.1 (c); 1.3; 1.4(a); 8.2(a)(2); and 8.4(a)-(c).
The hearing panel ordered that respondent's license to practice law in Michiga~ be suspended for 120 days, effective August 24, 2008.
The Grievance Administrator filed a petition for review, seeking an increase in discipline. A review hearing was held and the Attorney Discipline Board issued an order increasing the discipline from a 120 day suspension to a revocation of respon.dent's license. Additionally, the Board also changed the effective date of the discipline, making it retroactive to October 9, 2006. Total costs were assessed in the amount of $2,368.46.
