Ind. Courts - List posted of lawyers suspended for failing to pay registration fees or comply with CLE requirements

The Supreme Court has today made available a 27-page order, file stamped May 5th, headed: "Order of suspension of certain attorneys for failure to pay attorney registration fees and/or failure to comply with continuing legal education requirements." You may access it here.

The Order provides:

The Court finds that the attorneys listed on Exhibit A, which is attached to and expressly made a part of this order, have not complied with the Admission and Discipline Rules mentioned above, the basis or bases of their noncompliance being listed to the immediate right of each attorney's bar number. Accordingly, this Court finds that such attorneys should be and therefore ARE SUSPENDED from the practice of law in the State of Indiana.

Although the suspension is effective as of the date of this order for purposes of the reinstatement procedures that must be followed and/or any reinstatement fees that must be paid for reinstatement, the Court directs that the proscription against the actual practice of law will go into effect at 11 :59 p.m. on Thursday, June 4, 2009. The delay from the date of this order to the suspension date is for the sole purpose of allowing time for copies ofthis order to be sent, received, and acted upon by the suspended attorneys. Any attorney whose name appears on Exhibit A may be reinstated by complying with the applicable reinstatement procedures and by paying any applicable penalties.

[Note: A reader points out that many on the list may have been reinstated by now. Perhaps one can check this via the Roll of Attorneys, if it is current.]

Because the document posted on the Courts site is scanned and thus not searchable, the ILB has produced a searchable version, which you may access here.

Note also that the pages of the Court's document are not numbered. You may find your county by using the search box in the ILB version; for instance "Marion County" is located at p. 11 of the PDF document. Or you may search for a specific name.
