2013 Ind. LEXIS 127; 2013 WL 616894

In re Durham

Opinion of the Court

PUBLISHED ORDER OF INTERIM SUSPENSION UPON NOTICE OF GUILTY FINDING

The Indiana Supreme Court Disciplinary Commission, pursuant to Indiana Admission and Discipline Rule 23(1 l.l)(a), has filed a “Notice of Guilty Finding and Request for Suspension,” asking that Respondent be 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 was adjudicated guilty based on jury verdicts of ten counts of wire fraud, one count of securities fraud, and one count of conspiracy to commit wire and securities fraud, ah of which are felonies under federal law.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Respondent is suspended pendente lite from the practice of law in this State, effective immediately. Respondent is already under a suspension for dues nonpayment. Respondent is ordered to fulfill the continuing duties of a suspended attorney under Admission and Discipline Rule 23(26). The interim suspension shall continue until further order of this Court or final resolution of any resulting disciplinary action, provided no other suspension is in effect.

The Clerk of this Court is directed to send notice of this Order to Respondent or Respondent’s attorney by certified or registered mail, to the Indiana Supreme Court Disciplinary Commission, and to all other entities entitled to notice under Admission and Discipline Rule 23(3)(d). The Clerk is further directed to post this order to the Court’s website, and Thomson Reuters is directed to publish a copy of this order in the bound volumes of this Court’s decisions.
