IN THE MATTER OF THE STRIKING OF NAMES OF MEMBERS OF THE 
OKLAHOMA BAR ASSOCIATION FOR NONPAYMENT OF 2008 DUES
ORDER STRIKING NAMES
There came on for consideration the Application for Order Striking Names by 
the Board of Governors of the Oklahoma Bar Association petitioning for the 
striking of names of attorneys from the membership rolls of the Oklahoma Bar 
Association and from the practice of law in the State of Oklahoma for failure to 
pay dues as members of the Oklahoma Bar Association for the year 2008.
It appears to the Court that the Board of Governors at their July 24, 2009, 
meeting, in compliance with Article VIII, §5 of the Rules Creating and 
Controlling the Oklahoma Bar Association, 5 O.S., Ch. 1, App. 1 (1981), 
established that the members of the Oklahoma Bar Association named on Exhibit A, 
attached hereto, were suspended from membership in the Association and from the 
practice of law in the State of Oklahoma by Order of this Court in Case No. 
S.C.B.D. 5427 on June 30, 2008. It further appears to the Court that the Board 
of Governors has determined that no application for reinstatement has been filed 
by said members within one year of suspension. In addition, it appears to the 
Court that on July 24, 2009, the Board of Governors declared the members set out 
on Exhibit A, attached hereto, ceased to be members of said Association and 
should therefore be stricken from the membership rolls of the Oklahoma Bar 
Association.
THE COURT THEREFORE FINDS
DONE BY ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT IN CONFERENCE THIS 21ST DAY OF SEPTEMBER, 
2009
