ORDER 
This 29th day of June 2009, it appears to the Court that the Board on Professional 
Responsibility, in accordance with Rule 18(d) of the Rules of the Delaware Lawyers’ Rules of 
Disciplinary Procedure, has recommended the Respondent be placed on disability inactive.  On 
January 14, 2009, the Supreme Court of Tennessee ordered the Respondent be transferred to 
disability inactive status for an indefinite period of time.  Neither the Respondent nor the Office 
of Disciplinary Counsel opposes the Board’s recommendation of reciprocal disability inactive 
status. 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:  
1. 
The Respondent is hereby transferred to disability inactive status until such time 
as he can demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that any disabilities have been removed; 
2. 
The Respondent shall pay the costs of these disciplinary proceedings, pursuant to 
Rule 27 of the Delaware Lawyers’ Rules of Disciplinary Procedure, promptly upon presentation 
of a statement of costs by the Office of Disciplinary Counsel; and  
3. 
This Order shall be disseminated by the ODC in accordance with Rule 14 of the 
Delaware Lawyers’ Rules of Disciplinary Procedure.
