resignation. See SCR 98(5)(a)(2). Bauer acknowledges that her resignation
is irrevocable and that the state bar retains continuing jurisdiction with
respect to matters involving a past member's conduct prior to resignation.
See SCR 98(5)(c)-(d). Finally, Bauer has submitted an affidavit of
compliance with SCR 115. See SCR 98(5)(e).

                                                                2i-
