In Re: Discipline of Frank Phelan

Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

IN THE MATTER OF DISCIPLINE OF No. 70149 FRANK PHELAN, BAR NO. 10716.

FILE MAY 1 1 2016 ick • K. .4 INDEMAV

• -"F EPA tek I ' iMm 2"1"5"

ORDER DECLINING TO IMPOSE TEMPORARY SUSPENSI This is a petition under SCR 111 concerning attorney Frank Phelan, based on a conviction for trespassing, a misdemeanor in violation of NRS 207.200(1). Phelan self-reported the conviction to the State Bar as required by SCR 111(2). Because the conviction is not for a "serious crime" as defined in SCR 111(6), temporary suspension and referral for disciplinary proceedings are not mandatory. SCR 111(7), (8). Having considered the petition and supporting documentation, we conclude that Phelan's offense is a minor one that does not warrant the imposition of a temporary suspension or referral to a disciplinary board at this time. See SCR 111(9).

It is so ORDERED.
