Supreme Court

       In the Matter of Mary E. O’Rourke.                   No. 2013-230 M.P.

                                            ORDER

       On July 18, 2013, pursuant to Article III, Rule 13 of the Supreme Court Rules, the

respondent filed an affidavit with this Court’s Disciplinary Board setting forth that she is aware

she is the subject of an investigation of professional misconduct. The respondent’s affidavit sets

forth that she freely and voluntarily consents to disbarment and that she is fully aware of the

implications of submitting her consent.      On July 18, 2013, Disciplinary Counsel filed the

respondent’s affidavit with the Court.

       Upon review of the respondent’s affidavit, we deem that an order disbarring the

respondent is appropriate.

that the respondent, Mary E. O’Rourke, be and she is hereby disbarred on consent from engaging
