PUBLISHED ORDER SUSPENDING RESPONDENT FROM THE PRACTICE OF LAW IN INDIANA FOR NONCOOPERATION

On August 29, 2008, this Court ordered Respondent to show cause why Respondent should not be immediately suspended from the practice of law in this state for failure to respond to a subpoena duces tecum issued by the Disciplinary Commission as part of an investigation into a grievance against Respondent. The order required that Respondent show cause in *458 writing within 10 days of service of the order. Respondent has not submitted a response to the Court's order to show cause. On October 21, 2008, the Commission filed a "Request For Ruling And To Tax Costs."

Being duly advised, the Court ORDERS that Respondent be suspended from the practice of law, effective immediately. Pursuant to Admission and Discipline Rule 23(10)(f)(3), the suspension shall continue until: (1) the Executive Secretary of the Disciplinary Commission certifies to the Court that Respondent has cooperated fully with the investigation; (2) the investigation or any disciplinary proceedings arising from the investigation are disposed of; or (3) until further order of this Court. Respondent is ordered to fulfill the duties of a suspended attorney under Admission and Discipline Rule 23(26).

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, pursuant to Admission and Discipline Rule 23(10)(f)(5), that Respondent reimburse the Disciplinary Commission $521.14 for the costs of prosecuting this proceeding.

The Clerk of this Court is directed to give notice of this order to Respondent by certified mail, return receipt requested, at the address reflected in the Roll of Attorneys. The Clerk of this Court is further directed to give notice of this order to the Disciplinary Commission, to all other entities entitled to notice under Admission and Discipline Rule 23(3)(d), and to Thomson/West for publication in the bound volumes of this Court's decisions.

All Justices concur.
