Opinion of the Court
ATTORNEY DISCIPLINARY ' PROCEEDINGS
liOn December 6, 2013, we accepted a petition for consent discipline and suspended respondent; Gilbert E. Stampley, for a period of eighteen months, with all but one year deferred, subject to his successful completion of a one-year period of unsupervised probation. In re: Stampley, 13-2604 (La.12/6/13), 129 So.3d 527 (“Stampley I”).
We agree that these facts reflect new violations of the Rules of Professional Conduct by respondent which would support the imposition of the deferred portion of the eighteen-month suspension we imposed on December 6, 2013. Accordingly, we will make the previously deferred portion of respondent’s suspension immediately executory.
