Ind. Decisions - More on: "Ex-lawyer gets 2 years in deadly DUI," may serve 11 months

Updating this ILB entry from June 3rd, the Supreme Court, in a "Published order of interim suspension upon notice of guilty finding," dated June 11th, states:

The Indiana Supreme Court Disciplinary Commission, pursuant to Indiana Admission and Discipline Rule 23(11.1)(a), files a "Notice of Guilty Finding and Request for Suspension," asking that Respondent [Terry J. Record] be immediately suspended from the practice of law in this State, pending further order of this Court or final resolution of any resulting disciplinary action, due to Respondent being found guilty of a crime punishable as a felony.

The Court, being duly advised and upon careful consideration of all materials submitted, now finds that Respondent has pled guilty to operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated causing death, a class C felony.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Respondent is suspended pendente lite from the practice of law in this State, effective fifteen (15) days from the date of this order. Respondent is ordered to fulfill the duties of a suspended attorney under Admission and Discipline Rule 23(26). The suspension shall continue until further order of this Court or final resolution of any resulting disciplinary action. [Emphasis in the original]
