In the matter of the Complaint filed by PATRICK LYNN, ________________________ Case No. 07-3234 (D. Kan.) PATRICK LYNN, (D.C. No. 07-0102-AD) Plaintiff-Appellant, v. CHARLES ROGERS; STEPHEN G. MIRAKIAN; LINDEN APPEL; and JULIE ST. PETER, Defendants-Appellees.
ORDER
Before TACHA, Chief Circuit Judge, HENRY and HARTZ, Circuit Judges.
This is an appeal from a district court order dismissing appellant’s disciplinary complaints against four attorneys, Charles Rogers, Stephen G. Mirakian, Linden Appel, and Julie St. Peter, and from an order denying appellant’s motion for reconsideration.
A private citizen does not have standing to initiate or maintain a disciplinary proceeding, or to appeal if a court declines to discipline an attorney. See, e.g., Mattice v. Meyer, 353 F. 2d 316 (8th Cir. 1965).
This appeal is DISMISSED.
