Florida Bar v. Swedlow

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

In response to a complaint filed by the Florida Bar, Robert H. Swedlow, a member of the bar, tendered a conditional guilty plea for consent judgment, to which the bar agreed. The referee recommends that Swedlow be found guilty of violating disciplinary rules 1-102(A)(6) (conduct that adversely reflects on fitness to practice law) and 6-101(A)(3) (neglect of a legal matter entrusted to him) and article XI, rule 11.-02(3) of the integration rule (commission of an act contrary to honesty, justice, or good morals). The referee also recommends a public reprimand and a two-year probation with conditions.

After reviewing the record, we accept the referee’s findings. We hereby reprimand Robert H. Swedlow and place him on probation for two years,* beginning on the filing date of this opinion. Judgment for costs in the amount of $547.31 is hereby entered against Swedlow, for which sum let execution issue.

It is so ordered.
