And the District XB Ethics Committee and respondent having signed a stipulation of discipline by consent in which it was agreed that respondent violated RPC 1.16(b) (improper withdrawal from the representation of the client), RPC 1.16(c) (failure to comply with applicable law requiring notice to or permission of a tribunal when terminating the representation), RPC 1.16(d) (failure to protect his client's interests, upon termination of the representation), RPC 5.5(a)(1) (practicing law while ineligible), and RPC 8.4(d) (conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice);
And the parties having agreed that respondent's conduct violated RPC 1.16(b),(e),(d), RPC 5.5(a)(1), and RPC 8.4(d), and that said conduct warrants a censure or lesser discipline;
And the Disciplinary Review Board having determined that the stipulated facts support a finding that respondent violated RPC 1.16(b),(c),(d), RPC 5.5(a)(1), and RPC 8.4(d), and that a censure is the appropriate discipline for respondent's unethical conduct and having granted the motion for discipline by consent in District Docket No. XB-2013-0006E;
And the Disciplinary Review Board having submitted the record of the proceedings to the Clerk of the Supreme Court for the entry of an order of discipline in accordance with Rule l:20-16(e);
