The Court entered the following order on this date: 
 
On January 23, 2001, Attorney John F. Kerscher filed a 
request pursuant to SCR 22.34(11), for the indefinite suspension 
of his license to practice law in this state due to his medical 
incapacity. The Office of Lawyer Regulation filed a response 
supporting that request and a summary of its investigation into 
the medical incapacity allegations against Attorney John R. 
Kerscher. 
Attorney 
Kerscher 
acknowledges 
that 
he 
cannot 
successfully defend himself against the medical incapacity 
allegations. Based upon these considerations, 
 
IT IS ORDERED that the request is granted and, effective 
the date of this order, Attorney John F. Kerscher's license to 
practice law in this state is indefinitely suspended.
