ORDER APPROVING CONSENT TO DISCIPLINE AND IMPOSING SUPSENSION

Facts: Under Count I of the verified complaint, the respondent neglected 12 legal matters he had undertaken on behalf of a mortgage company. Rather than advise his client of his delay in taking action, he repeatedly misled company officials as to the status of the cases, falsely advising that specific pleadings had been filed and, in one instance, affixing a false file stamp to a document to demonstrate to them that it had been filed.

Under Count II of the complaint, the respondent took over a will matter from his law partner, then failed to take action for the clients and failed to respond to their requests for information regarding their legal affairs.

Violations: The respondent violated Ind. Professional Conduct Rule 1.3, which requires: a lawyer to act with reasonable diligence and promptness in representing a client. He violated ProfiCond.R. 1.4(a); which requires lawyers to keep clients reasonably informed about the status of their legal matters and promptly to respond to reasonable requests for informa- . tion. He violated Prof.Cond.R. 1.16(2)(2), which requires a lawyer to withdraw from representation when the lawyer's mental condition materially impairs his ability to represent the client. He violated Prof. Cond.R. 8.4(c) by engaging in conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation.
