MISCELLANEOUS ORDERS

This matter originated in this court on the filing of a report by the Commission on Continuing Legal Education (the "commission") pursuant to Gov.Bar R. X(6)(A)(1)(b) and (A)(2)(d). The commission recommended the imposition of sanctions against certain attorneys, including the above-named respondent, for failure to comply with the provisions of Gov.Bar R.

On May 9, 1994, pursuant to Gov.Bar R. X(6)(B)(3), this court entered an order adopting the commission's recommendation related to the 1991-1992 reporting period, suspending the respondent from the practice of law, and imposing a fee sanction upon the respondent.

On April 5, 2006, the commission filed a motion to modify sanction, requesting that the order of May 9, 1994, pertaining to the above-named respondent, be modified to order a monetary sanction only. Upon consideration thereof,

IT IS ORDERED by the court that the motion to modify sanction is granted.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED by the court that the entry of May 9, 1994, is modified as follows: respondent's suspension from the practice of law is vacated and the monetary sanction of $750.00 remains.
