2025.02.21 /s/ Matthew J. Fader Chief Justice 13:45:55 -05'00' Gregory Hilton, Clerk The Court notes that the PDRA does not request corresponding discipline. If the Attorney Grievance Commission is seeking corresponding discipline, Bar Counsel should file a separate request for the imposition of such discipline. Given the nature of the discipline imposed by the other jurisdiction, the separate request should also identify the specific form of corresponding discipline sought, including the start date for any suspension and any specific requirements for reinstement.
