ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE

RANDALL T. SHEPARD, Chief Justice.

Comes now the Indiana Supreme Court Disciplinary Commission and, pursuant to Ind.Admission and Discipline Rule 23(10)(f), petitions this Court to direct the respondent, Barbara A. Transki, to show cause why she should not be immediately suspended from the practice of law in this state due to her failure to respond to the Commission's demands for a response to a grievance filed against her, which was sent to, and received by the respondent at her official address of record with the Clerk of this Court.

And this Court, being duly advised, now finds that the Commission's petition should be granted. Accordingly, we find that the respondent should be ordered to show cause to this Court why she should not be immediately suspended from the practice of law in this state due to her failure to submit to the Commission a written response to pending allegations of professional misconduct, received by the respondent at her official address of record with the Clerk of this Court.

IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that, pursuant to Admis.Disc.R. 23(10)(f), the respondent, Barbara A. Transki, is hereby directed to show cause in writing, within 10 days of service of this order, why she should not be immediately suspended from the practice of law in this state due to her failure to submit to the Disciplinary Commission a written response to pending allegations of misconduct requiring a written response received by the respondent at her official address of record with the Clerk of this Court.

The Clerk of this Court is ordered to serve a certified copy of this Order upon the respondent by delivering a copy to her personally, or by sending to her a certified copy of it by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested. Should service not be obtained as outlined above, the Clerk of this Court is directed to complete service pursuant to Admis.Disc.R. 23(12)(h).

The Clerk of this Court is further directed to provide notice of this Order to the Indiana Supreme Court Disciplinary Commission and its attorney of record.
