The Director of the Office of Lawyers Professional Responsibility has filed a petition for disciplinary action alleging that respondent Eric Christopher Thole committed professional misconduct warranting public discipline, namely, misuse of law firm correspondence in violation of Rules 8.4(c) and (d), Minnesota Rules of Professional Conduct.

This court has independently reviewed the file and approves the jointly recommended disposition.

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that respondent Eric Christopher Thole is publicly reprimanded and that he shall pay $900 in costs pursuant to Rule 24, RLPR.
