Heading: Attorney Discipline Action

Text: Pursuant to Indiana Admission and Discipline Rule 23(11), the Indiana Supreme Court Disciplinary Commission and Respondent have submitted for approval a Statement of Circumstances and Conditional Agreement for Discipline stipulating agreed facts and proposed discipline. Respondent's solicitation of clients within Indiana subjects him to this Court's exclusive jurisdiction to regulate professional legal activity in this state. See IND. CONST. art. 7, § 4; Matter of Murgatroyd, 741 N.E.2d 719 (Ind.2001). The Court approves the agreement and finds that Respondent engaged in attorney misconduct by violating this state's ethical standards for advertising legal services to Indiana residents. For this misconduct, we bar Respondent indefinitely from acts constituting the practice of law in this state, including temporary admission and solicitation of clients, until further order of the Court.
