BOARD OF OVERSEERS OF THE BAR Plaintiff, v. JAMES M. CAMERON Me. Bar No. 6893 Defendant
ORDER of SUSPENSION M. Bar R. 7.3(d)(1)
By agreement of the parties, the August 30, 2011 hearing scheduled in the above pending matter is now ORDERED indefinitely continued, pending a decision from the First Circuit Court of Appeals regarding James M. Cameron's appeal of the March 10, 2011 convictions entered by the U.S. District Court, District of Maine, Case Number 1-09-CR-000024-001.
While the appeal is pending, Mr. Cameron's license to practice law shall remain administratively suspended, pursuant to an order issued by the Board of Overseers of the Bar on October 19, 2010. In addition, by agreement of the parties, Mr. Cameron's license to practice law is also suspended by this Court, pursuant to M.
