In re PETITION FOR DISCIPLINARY REVOCATION OF Beverley A. LINTON–Davis.
Opinion
The uncontested petition for disciplinary revocation, as provided by Rule 3–7.12, Rules Regulating The Florida Bar, with leave to seek readmission after five years, is granted subject to the continuing jurisdiction of this Court. See Florida Bar v. Ross, 732 So.2d 1037, 1040–42 (Fla.1998). Disciplinary revocation is tantamount to disbarment. Florida Bar v. Hale, 762 So.2d 515 (Fla.2000). As stated in the petition, petitioner is not currently practicing law; therefore the disciplinary revocation shall be effective immediately. Petitioner shall fully comply with Rule Regulating the Florida Bar 3–5.1(h). In addition, petitioner shall accept no new business from the date this order is filed until she is readmitted.
Judgment is entered for The Florida Bar, 651 East Jefferson Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399–2300, for recovery of costs from Beverley A. Linton Davis in the amount of $1,250.00, for which sum let execution issue.
POLSTON, C.J., and PARIENTE, LEWIS, QUINCE, CANADY, LABARGA, and PERRY, JJ., concur.
