in Re: Discipline of Matthew Shelton

Opinion

with conditions for one year. Shelton did not self-report this discipline to the Nevada state bar as required by SCR 114(1).

SCR 114(4) provides that this court shall impose identical reciprocal discipline unless the attorney demonstrates, or this court finds, that one of four exceptions applies. None of the exceptions are present in this case.

Accordingly, we grant the petition for reciprocal discipline.

Attorney Matthew P. Shelton is hereby suspended from the practice of law for one year, with that suspension stayed and a 30-day actual suspension imposed, and placed on probation for one year. The discipline shall begin retroactively on May 22, 2012. Shelton shall provide to the state bar proof that he has complied with the conditions of probation imposed on him by California. Shelton and the state bar shall comply with SCR 115 and SCR 121.1.

It is so ORDERED.
