Upon consideration of the Office of Disciplinary
Counsel’s “petition for order granting request of Dale L. Sennett
to resign from the practice of law in lieu of discipline,” and
the menorandun, affidavit, and exhibits in support thereof, it
appears the motion is supported by Respondent Bennett's affidavit
and that the affidavit meets the requirements of Rule 2.14(a) of
the Rules of the Supreme Court of the State of Hawai'i (“RSCH”),
It finally appears that Respondent Bennett is currently suspended
and should have no practice to wind down. Therefore,

IT 18 HEREBY ORDERED that the motion is granted and the
request of Respondent Dale L. Bennett to resign in lieu of
discipline is granted, effective upon entry of this order.

TT TS FURTHER ORDERED that (1) upon the effective date
of this order, the Clerk shall remove the nane of Dale L. Bennett
from the roll of attorneys licensed to practice law in this
jurisdiction, and (2) within ten (10) days after the effective
date of this order, Respondent Bennett shall deposit with the
Clerk of this court the original certificate evidencing his

license to practice law in this state.

aad
TT 1S FINALLY ORDERED that (1) Respondent Bennett shall
comply with the requirements of RSCH 2.16, and (2) the
Disciplinary Board shall provide notice to the public and judges,
as required by RSCH 2.16(e) and (£)-
