In the MATTER OF Everett Jay GREENO, Respondent.
    Bar Docket No. 11657
    Supreme Court of Kansas.
    June 3, 2019
    ORDER OF DISBARMENT
   In a letter signed by the respondent on May 28, 2019, addressed to the Clerk of the Appellate Courts, respondent Everett Jay Greeno, an attorney admitted to the practice of law in the state of Kansas, voluntarily surrendered his license to practice law in Kansas, pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 217 (2019 Kan. S. Ct. R. 267).

On October 3, 2018, this court suspended the respondent's license to practice law for failing to pay the annual registration fee. The respondent's license to practice law remains suspended.

At the time the respondent surrendered his license, two disciplinary complaints were pending with the Disciplinary Administrator alleging violations of Kansas Rules of Professional Conduct 1.3 (2019 Kan. S. Ct. R. 298) (diligence), 1.4 (2019 Kan. S. Ct. R. 299) (communication), 1.15 (2019 Kan. S. Ct. R. 334) (safekeeping property), 1.16 (2019 Kan. S. Ct. R. 339) (termination of representation), 8.1 (2019 Kan. S. Ct. R. 384) (failure to respond to disciplinary authority), and 8.4 (2019 Kan. S. Ct. R. 387) (professional misconduct), as well as Supreme Court Rules 207 (2019 Kan. S. Ct. R. 252) (failure to cooperate in disciplinary investigation) and 208 (2019 Kan. S. Ct. R. 252) (registration). A hearing before the Kansas Board for Discipline of Attorneys is scheduled for June 5, 2019.

This court finds that the surrender of the respondent's license should be accepted and that the respondent should be disbarred.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Everett Jay Greeno be and he is hereby disbarred from the practice of law in Kansas, and his license and privilege to practice law are hereby revoked.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Appellate Courts strike the name of Everett Jay Greeno from the roll of attorneys licensed to practice law in Kansas.
