On Petition for Reinstatement.
This cause came on for further consideration upon the filing of a petition for reinstatement by respondent, Joseph L. Colburn, Jr. In accordance with Gov.Bar R. V(29), respondent's petition for reinstatement was referred to the Board of Commissioners on Grievances and Discipline. The Board of Commissioners on Grievances and Discipline filed its Final Report in this court on February 28, 1992, recommending that Joseph L.

The court coming now to consider its order of May 10, 1989, indefinitely suspending respondent, Joseph L. Colburn, Jr., from the practice of law pursuant to Gov.Bar R. V(7)(b), with credit given for two years of the period of respondent's previous suspension imposed under Gov.Bar R. V(8)(a)(iii) [now Section 9(a)(iii) ], to be applied as of the date of his release from incarceration, finds that respondent has complied with that order and with the provisions of Sections 25 through 28 of Gov.Bar R. V. On consideration thereof, and the Final Report of the Board of Commissioners on Grievances and Discipline,
IT IS ORDERED by the court that the petition for reinstatement of Joseph L. Colburn, Jr., Attorney Registration Number 0042843, be, and hereby is, granted.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that respondent forthwith comply with the registration requirements of Gov.Bar R. VI.
