No. 112,037 
 
In the Matter of ERIC MICHAEL GAMBLE, 
Petitioner. 
 
 
ORDER OF REINSTATEMENT  
 
 
On December 5, 2014, this court suspended the petitioner, Eric Michael 
Gamble, from the practice of law in Kansas for a period of 6 months. See In re 
Gamble, 301 Kan. 13, 338 P.3d 576 (2014). The court further ordered that the 
petitioner undergo a hearing, pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 219 (2015 Kan. Ct. 
R. Annot. 403), prior to consideration of a petition for reinstatement. 
 
On November 24, 2015, petitioner filed a motion for reinstatement. On 
December 7, 2015, the court referred the petition to the Disciplinary Administrator 
for investigation and hearing. On June 9, 2016, a hearing panel of the Kansas 
Board for Discipline of Attorneys conducted a hearing to consider the petitioner's 
petition for reinstatement.   
 
On August 9, 2016, the hearing panel filed its report setting out the 
circumstances leading to the petitioner's suspension, a summary of the evidence 
presented, and its findings and recommendations. The panel unanimously 
recommended that the petitioner's petition for reinstatement of his license to 
practice law in Kansas be granted.  
 
The court, after carefully considering the record, accepts the findings and 
recommendations of the hearing panel and grants the petitioner's petition for 
reinstatement of his license to practice law in Kansas.
