IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

IN THE MATTER OF DISCIPLINE OF No. 69779 CHARLES C. LOBELLO, BAR NO. 5052.

FILED APR 22 2016 IE K. LINDEMAN F EM

ORDER APPROVING CONDITIONAL GUILTY PLEA This is an automatic review of a Southern Nevada Disciplinary Board hearing panel's recommendation that this court approve, pursuant to SCR 113, a conditional guilty plea agreement in exchange for a stated form of discipline for attorney Charles C. Lobello.

Under the agreement, Lobello admitted to violations of RPC 8.4(b) (misconduct commission of a criminal act that reflects adversely on the lawyer's honesty, trustworthiness, or fitness as a lawyer) and RPC 8.4(c) (misconduct: engaging in conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation).

The agreement provides for a four-year suspension retroactive to July 29, 2013, the date that Lobello was temporarily suspended from the practice of law based on his conviction for felony tax evasion. The agreement further provides that Lobello will pay the actual costs of the disciplinary proceedings, excluding Bar Counsel and staff salaries, within days of receipt of a billing from the State Bar.

Based on our review of the record, we conclude that the guilty plea agreement should be approved. See SCR 113(1). Considering the seriousness of the violations along with the aggravating and mitigating factors, we conclude that a four-year suspension retroactive to the date of SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA (0) 1947A 46#0 SZL098 A the temporary suspension is sufficient to serve the purpose of attorney discipline. See In re Lerner, 124 Nev. 1232, 1246, 197 P.3d 1067, 1077-78 (2008) (setting forth factors to be considered); State Bar of Nev. v. Claiborne, 104 Nev. 115, 213, 756 P.2d 464, 527-28 (1988) (explaining purpose of attorney discipline).

Accordingly, we hereby impose a four-year suspension beginning retroactively on July 29, 2013, the date of Lobello's temporary suspension. Additionally, Lobello shall pay the actual costs of the disciplinary proceedings, excluding Bar Counsel and staff salaries, within days of receipt of the State Bar's bill of costs. The parties shall comply with the applicable provisions of SCR 115 and SCR 121.1.

It is so ORDERED.
