December 12, 2001.
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
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 respondents, J. Scott Forgey and Kimberly Lynn Forgey, to show cause why they should not be immediately suspended from the practice of law in this state due to their failure to respond to the Commission's demands for a response to a grievance filed against them and sent to their 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 respondents should be ordered to show cause to this Court why they should not be immediately suspended from the practice of law in this state due to their failure to submit to the Commission a written response to pending allegations of professional misconduct sent to their official address of record with the Clerk of this Court.
IT IS THEREFORE, ORDERED that, pursuant to Admiss.Disc.R. 23(10)(f), the respondents, J. Scott Forgey and Kimberlie Lynn Forgey, are hereby directed to show cause in writing, within 10 days of service of this order, why they should not be immediately suspended from the practice of law in this state due to their failure to submit to the Disciplinary Commission a written response to pending allegations of misconduct requiring a written response and sent to the respondents' 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 respondents by delivering a copy to each personally or by sending each a certified copy of it by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested. In the event the personal service or service by registered or certified mail cannot be obtained upon the respondents, a certified copy of this Court shall be served on the Clerk of this Court as agent for the respondents as provided in 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.
All Justices concur.
