IN RE Petition for DISCIPLINARY ACTION AGAINST Andrew Marc SMALL, a non-Minnesota Attorney.
A16-1832
Supreme Court of Minnesota.
Dated: December 29, 2016

Opinion:
ORDER
The Director of the Office of Lawyers Professional Responsibility has filed a petition for disciplinary action alleging that respondent Andrew Marc Small committed professional misconduct warranting public discipline—namely, engaging in the unauthorized practice of law while not licensed in the State of Minnesota. See Minn. R. Prof. Conduct 5.5(a), 5.5(b), 8.4(d).
Respondent waives his rights under Rule 14, Rules on Lawyers Professional Responsibility (RLPR), unconditionally admits the allegations in the petition, and with the Director recommends that the appropriate discipline is a public reprimand.
The court has independently reviewed the file and approves the recommended disposition.
Based upon all the files, records, and proceedings herein,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:
1. Respondent Andrew Marc Small is publicly reprimanded.
2. Respondent shall pay $900 in costs pursuant to Rule 24, RLPR.
