Clerk of Supreme Court 
 
 
 
 
The Court entered the following order on this date:   
On March 15, 2021, Attorney Laura Waite filed a request 
pursuant to SCR 22.34(11), for indefinite suspension of her 
license to practice law in this state due to her 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 Waite.  
Attorney Waite acknowledges that she cannot successfully defend 
herself 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 Laura Waite's license to 
practice law in this state is indefinitely suspended.
