NOTICE OF AUTOMATIC SUSPENSION FOR NON-PAYMENT OF COSTS Case No. 17-1-GA Notice Issued: May 1,2018
Lawrence B. Shulman, P 45075, Birmingham, Michigan. Effective April 25, 2018. In Grievance Administrator v Lawrence B. Shulman, Case No. 17-1-GA, the Attorney Discipline Board issued an Order Dismissing Respondent's Cross-Petition for Review and Dissolving Automatic Stay of Order of Suspension pursuant to MCR 9.118(B). As a result, the 90-day suspension of respondent's license to practice law in Michigan, imposed by Tri-County Hearing Panel #69, was to commence on April 12, 2018. The parties filed a stipulation to extend the effective date of respondent's suspension from the practice of law to May 4, 2018, which was granted by the Board in an order issued April 12, 2018. The Board's order did not extend the time for respondent to pay costs. Costs were due on or before April 12, 2018. Respondent failed to pay the costs as ordered and in accordance with MCR 9.128(C), a certification of nonpayment of costs was issued on April 17, 2018.
In accordance with MCR 9.128(0), respondent's license to practice law in Michigan was automatically suspended on April 25, 2018, and, pursuant to MCR 9.128, that suspension will remain in effect until the costs have been paid and respondent has complied with MCR 9.119 and 9.123(A).
