/ SUPREME COURT OF ARI(ANSAS IN RE UPDATED LIST OF ATTORNEYS SUSPENDED FOR FAILURE TO PAY 2016 ANNUAL ATTORNEY-LICENSE FEE Opinion Delivered Jtrne 9,2076 PER CURIAM On April 28, 2076, we issued an opinion pursuanr to Rule VII(C) of the Rules Governing Admission to the Bar identifyirrg attorneys who were suspended from the practice of law in the State of Arkansas due to the failure of those attorneys to pay their 20'1.6 anntal attorney-license fees. See In re Suspensions of Attomeys Who Failed to Pay 2016 Annual Attomey-License Fee, 2076 Ark. 195 (per curiam). Since the issuance of that opinion, some attorneys have been reinstated by becoming current on the past-due fees and penalties, and some attorneys have surrendered their licenses voluntarily. Rule VII(CX18) requires that we periodically provide an updated list of attorneys suspended for failure to pay annual fees. Attached is an updated list. The attorneys listed in Category t have not paid their license fees, have remained suspended for nonpayment, and shall not practice law in this state until they are reinstated to good standing. The attorneys listed in Category 2 were suspended for failure to pay license fees, have become current on the fees and penalties, and are reinstated to their pre-suspension statuses. We caution that placement in Category 2 is proof of good standing only as to payment of license Ges. Infornration regarding the status of an attorney's license may be obtained from the clerk of this court. Cite as 2016 Ark. 260 We take this opportunity to remind those attorney who no longer want an attorney's license that were are permitting suspended attorneys ro surrender their licenses voluntarily without paying past fees and penalties, and we will continue to do so until December 31.,201,6. See In re Amendments to Rules Gouerning Admission to the Bar, Rule VIl, 2015 Ark. 280 (per curiam). Attorneys who wish to petition this court to surrender their licenses voluntarily should begin that process by contacting the OfEce of the Committee on Professional Conduct.
