Opinion:
ORDER
This matter originated in this Court on the filing of a report by the Commission on Continuing Legal Education (the "Commission") pursuant to Gov. Bar R. X, Sec. 6, Div. (A)(1)(b) and Div. (A)(2)(d). The Commission recommended the imposition of sanctions against certain attorneys and judges, including the above-named respondent, for failure to comply with the applicable continuing legal education provisions of Gov. Bar R. X and Gov. Jud. R. IV, for the 2000-2001 reporting period.
On November 6, 2002, pursuant to Gov. Bar R. X, Sec. 6, Div. (B)(1), this Court issued to the respondent an order to show cause why the Commission's recommendation should not be adopted and an order so entered against the respondent. Respondent filed no objections to the Commission's recommendation and this cause was considered by the Court. Upon consideration thereof,
IT IS ORDERED by the Court that the recommendation of the Commission be adopted and, within 30 days of the date of this order, respondent shall pay to the Commission on Continuing Legal Education, by certified check, official check, or money order, a sanction fee which is hereby imposed in the total amount of $[ ].
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Clerk of the Court shall record the respondent's status on the roll of attorneys as "NOT IN GOOD STANDING" until such time as the respondent has complied with this Order but that this Order shall not be considered a disciplinary order pursuant to Gov. Bar R. V or Gov. Bar R. X, Sec. 6, Div. H.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Commission shall notify the Clerk of the Court when payment of the imposed sanction has been made by respondent.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED by the Court that the Clerk shall send this order by certified mail to the respondent at the business address registered with the Attorney Registration Section under Gov. Bar R. VI; that, if this order is returned as undeliverable or unclaimed, the Clerk shall resend it by regular mail to the respondent at the residence address registered with the Attorney Registration Section; and that service of this order in accordance with the foregoing shall be deemed effective service.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that, payment of the sanction notwithstanding, respondent shall comply with the requirements imposed by Gov. Bar R. X for the 2000-2001 reporting period. See CLE Reg. 503.04.
