        On consideration of the certified order of the Supreme Court of Florida
suspending respondent by consent from the practice of law in that jurisdiction for a
period of sixty days followed by a three-year period of probation; this court’s
February 12, 2009, order suspending respondent and directing her to show cause
why reciprocal discipline should not be imposed; and the statement of Disciplinary
Counsel regarding reciprocal discipline; and it appearing that respondent failed to
file either her D.C. Bar R. XI, §14(g) affidavit or a response to this court’s show
cause order, it is

       ORDERED that Liana Martinez is hereby suspended from the practice of law
in the District of Columbia for a period of sixty days, followed by a three-year period
of probation subject to the conditions imposed by the state of Florida. See In re
Sibley, 990 A.2d 483 (D.C. 2010); In re Fuller, 930 A.2d 194, 198 (D.C. 2007)
(rebuttable presumption of identical reciprocal discipline applies to all cases in
which the respondent does not participate). It is
       FURTHER ORDERED that for purposes of reinstatement respondent’s
period of suspension will not begin to run until such time as she files a D.C. Bar R.
XI, § 14(g) affidavit.
