                    ORDER DECLINING TO IMPOSE TEMPORARY SUSPENSI
                              This is a petition under SCR 111 concerning attorney Frank
                Phelan, based on a conviction for trespassing, a misdemeanor in violation
                of NRS 207.200(1). Phelan self-reported the conviction to the State Bar as
                required by SCR 111(2). Because the conviction is not for a "serious
                crime" as defined in SCR 111(6), temporary suspension and referral for
                disciplinary proceedings are not mandatory. SCR 111(7), (8). Having
                considered the petition and supporting documentation, we conclude that
                Phelan's offense is a minor one that does not warrant the imposition of a
                temporary suspension or referral to a disciplinary board at this time.           See

                SCR 111(9).
                              It is so ORDERED.
