ATTORNEY DISCIPLINARY PROCEEDINGS

The Office of Disciplinary Counsel (“ODC”) commenced an investigation into allegations that respondent neglected a legal matter. This misconduct occurred in the same time frame as the misconduct forming the basis of respondent’s earlier disciplinary matter. Prior to the filing of new formal charges, respondent and the ODC submitted a joint petition for consent discipline. Having reviewed the petition,

IT IS ORDERED that the Petition for Consent Discipline be accepted and that Gilda R. Small, Louisiana Bar Roll number 2114, be adjudged guilty of additional violations warranting discipline which may be considered in the event she applies for reinstatement from her suspension in In re: Small, 03-1736 (La.12/3/03), 863 So.2d 500, after becoming eligible to do so.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that all costs and expenses in the matter are assessed against respondent in accordance with Supreme Court Rule XIX, § 10.1, with legal interest to commence thirty days from the date of finality of this court’s judgment until paid.
