Schaefer's litigation activities since his last petition for reinstatement demonstrate his failure to comply with the professional conduct rules, his violation of which led to his disbarment. Accordingly, we approve the panel's recommendation and deny the petition for reinstatement. 2 Additionally, in accordance with the panel's recommendation, Schaefer will not be eligible to file any future reinstatement petitions until he has paid the costs of this reinstatement proceeding.

It is so ORDERED.
