IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF KANSAS 
 
Bar Docket No. 10407 
 
In the Matter of LESLIE C. SCHAEFER, 
Respondent. 
 
 
ORDER OF DISBARMENT 
 
 
 
In a letter dated February 27, 2012, addressed to the Clerk of the Appellate 
Courts, respondent Leslie C. Schaefer, of Rockville, Maryland, an attorney 
licensed as inactive in the state of Kansas, voluntarily surrendered her license to 
practice law in Kansas, pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 217 (2011 Kan. Ct. R. 
Annot. 371). 
 
 
At the time the respondent surrendered her license, a complaint had been 
docketed by the Disciplinary Administrator's office in accordance with Supreme 
Court Rule 211 (2011 Kan. Ct. R. Annot. 334). The complaint concerns 
allegations that Schaefer violated Supreme Court Rule 207 (2011 Kan. Ct. R. 
Annot. 314); Supreme Court Rule 208 (2011 Kan. Ct. R. Annot. 327) and Kansas 
Rules of Professional Conduct 1.15 (2011 Kan. Ct. R. Annot. 519) (safekeeping 
property); 8.1 (2011 Kan. Ct. R. Annot. 609) (bar admission and disciplinary 
matters), and 8.4(c) and (g) (2011 Kan. Ct. R. Annot. 618) (misconduct).  
 
 
This court, having examined the files of the office of the Disciplinary 
Administrator, finds that the surrender of the respondent's license should be 
accepted and that the respondent should be disbarred.
