ATTORNEY DISCIPLINARY PROCEEDING
PER CURIAM
The Office of Disciplinary Counsel ("ODC") commenced an investigation into allegations that respondent failed to comply with attorney advertising rules. Prior to the filing of formal charges, respondent and the ODC submitted a joint petition for consent discipline in which respondent admitted that she violated Rule 7.2(a)(3) of the Rules of Professional Conduct. Having reviewed the petition, IT IS ORDERED that the Petition for Consent Discipline be accepted and that Jaqueline A. Scott, Louisiana Bar Roll number 19783, be publicly reprimanded.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that all costs and expenses in the matter are assessed against respondent in accordance with Supreme Court Rule XIX, § 10.1, with legal interest to commence thirty days from the date of finality of this court's judgment until paid.
GRIFFIN, J., dissents and would reject the consent discipline as too harsh.
