that Dixon has practiced law for 28 years "without any ethical or disciplinary issues in any
jurisdiction where licensed or where admitted pro hac vice." Good cause appearing,
       IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the petition of Donna B. Dixon to waive the
three-year test requirement for the MPRE for purposes of Dixon's current application for
admission by motion to the State Bar of Montana is GRANTED.
       The Clerk shall mail a copy of this order to Petitioner and to the Administrator of
the Board of Bar Examiners at the State Bar of Montana.
