No. 16-BG-1095

IN RE: LORI L. BATTAILE,
                                Respondent.
Bar Registration No. 465685                                      DDN: 119-16

BEFORE: Blackburne-Rigsby, Associate Judge, and Pryor and Farrell, Senior
        Judges.
                                ORDER
                       (Filed – January 26, 2017)

       On consideration of the certified order revoking respondent’s license to
practice law in the state of Florida by consent, this court’s November 15, 2016,
order directing respondent to show cause why the functionally-equivalent
reciprocal discipline of disbarment should not be imposed, and the statement of
Disciplinary Counsel, and it appearing that respondent has failed to file either a
response to this court’s order to show cause or the affidavit required by D.C. Bar
R. XI, §14 (g), it is

       ORDERED that Lori L. Battaile is hereby disbarred from the practice of
law. 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 the period for
reinstatement will not begin to run until such time as she files a D.C. Bar. R. XI, §
14 (g) affidavit.
