Text: The disciplinary order of the Virginia Board was based upon an agreed disposition proposed by both the Virginia State Bar and Respondent that was presented by teleconference for approval of the Virginia Board on August 24, 2005. The Virginia Board's order, though formally entered on August 26, 2005, directs that Respondent's license to practice law in the Commonwealth of Virginia be . . . suspended for sixty (60) days, effective August 24, 2005, the date of the hearing. See Order of Suspension of 60 days, appended as Attachment B to the Statement of Bar Counsel (emphasis added). Respondent was represented by counsel. The Virginia Board recited the facts upon which the Order was based and described the nature of Respondent's misconduct as violations of Virginia Rules of Professional Conduct 3.3(a)(1) (false statement to a tribunal), 3.3(a)(4) (offer of evidence known to be false), 3.3(c) (failure to inform a tribunal of all material facts in an ex parte proceeding) and 3.5(f) (conduct intended to disrupt a tribunal).
