### INTRODUCTION This case is before the court on the voluntary surren

der of license filed by respondent, Gilbert G. Lundstrom, on September 13, 2018. The court accepts respondent’s voluntary surrender of his license and enters a judgment of disbarment.
STATEMENT OF FACTS Respondent was admitted to the practice of law in the State of Nebraska on June 16, 1969. His license is currently inac

tive. On September 13, 2018, respondent filed a voluntary surrender of license to practice law, in which he stated that he had been convicted in the U.S. District Court for the District of Nebraska of 12 different criminal counts of fraud-related felony charges. According to his voluntary surrender, respond

ent was sentenced to 132 months’ imprisonment and ordered to pay restitution.

### for this violation. In his voluntary surrender, respondent states that he freely, knowingly, and voluntarily surrenders his privi

lege to practice law in the State of Nebraska; waives his right to notice, appearance, or hearing prior to the entry of an order of disbarment; and consents to the entry of an immediate order of disbarment. The Counsel for Discipline, being aware of respondent’s federal case, has not objected to the volun

tary surrender.
ANALYSIS Neb. Ct. R. § 3-315 of the disciplinary rules provides in pertinent part: (A) Once a Grievance, a Complaint, or a Formal Charge has been filed, suggested, or indicated against a member, the member may voluntarily surrender his or her license. (1) The voluntary surrender of license shall state in writing that the member knowingly admits or knowingly does not challenge or contest the truth of the suggested or indicated Grievance, Complaint, or Formal Charge and waives all proceedings against him or her in connec

tion therewith. Pursuant to § 3-315 of the disciplinary rules, we find that respondent has voluntarily surrendered his license to practice law and knowingly does not challenge or contest the truth of the allegations that could be made against him in connection with his fraud-related convictions. Further, respondent has waived all proceedings against him in connection therewith. We further find that respondent has consented to the entry of an order of disbarment.
CONCLUSION Upon due consideration of the court file in this matter, the court finds that respondent has stated that he freely, know

ingly, and voluntarily admits that he does not contest the sug

gested allegations being made against him. The court accepts- 487 - N ebraska S upreme C ourt A dva nc e S 301 N ebraska R eport STATE EX REL. COUNSEL FOR DIS. v . LUNDSTROM Cite as 301 Neb. 485
