IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF HAWAI'I
OFFICE OF DISCIPLINARY COUNSEL,
Petitioner,
vs.
MICHAEL G.M. OSTENDORP,
Respondent.
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
(ODC CASE NO. 10-057-8891)
ORDER OF REINSTATEMENT
(By: Recktenwald, C.J., Nakayama, McKenna, Pollack, and Wilson, JJ.)
Upon consideration of the December 23, 2016 petition
and affidavit submitted by Respondent Michael G.M. Ostendorp and
the record, it appears Respondent Ostendorp has complied with all
relevant requirements upon which his six-month period of
suspension from the practice of law is contingent, and has
complied with the requirements of Rule 2.16 of the Rules of the
Supreme Court of the State of Hawai'i (RSCH), though we note
Respondent Ostendorp still must complete an audit of his practice
as provided in this court’s May 3, 2016 order. It further
appears the Office of Disciplinary Counsel was served notice of
the affidavit, as required by RSCH Rule 2.17(b). Therefore,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that, pursuant to RSCH Rule
2.17(b), Respondent Ostendorp is reinstated to the practice of
law in the jurisdiction of the State of Hawai'i, effective upon
entry of this order.
DATED: Honolulu, Hawai'i, January 17, 2017.
