In re: Petition for Disciplinary Revocation of Jason Dale Volkman
Not final until time expires to file motion for rehearing, and if filed, determined. The filing of a motion for rehearing shall not alter the effective date of this permanent revocation.
Lower Tribunal No(s).: 2024-30,241 (05A) (CDR)
The uncontested petition for disciplinary revocation, as provided by Rule 3-7.12, Rules Regulating The Florida Bar, without leave to seek readmission, is granted, subject to the continuing jurisdiction of this Court, effective immediately. See Florida Bar v. Ross, 732 So.2d 1037, 1040-42 (Fla. 1998). Disciplinary revocation is tantamount to disbarment. Florida Bar v. Hale, 762 So.2d 515 (Fla. 2000). Inasmuch as petitioner's disciplinary revocation petition was submitted without leave to seek readmission, his revocation is permanent. Petitioner shall fully comply with Rule Regulating The Florida Bar 3-5.1(h). Petitioner shall also fully comply with Rule Regulating The Florida Bar 3-6.1, if applicable.
Judgment is entered for The Florida Bar, 651 East Jefferson Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-2300, for recovery of costs from Jason Dale Volkman in the amount of $1,555.90, for which sum let execution issue.
