Kentucky Bar Association v. Suggs, Ky., 799 S.W.2d 575 (1990). On January 31, 1991, the Kentucky Bar Association issued charges alleging misappropriation of clients’ funds against Movant. On October 31, 1991, Movant filed a motion with the Supreme Court seeking to resign under terms of suspension. The Supreme Court entered an order on December 19, 1991, suspending Stanley C. Suggs from the practice of law for a period of three years effective September 6, 1990. Suggs v. Kentucky Bar Association, Ky., 819 S.W.2d 725 (1991).
Movant filed an application for reinstatement pursuant to SCR 3.510 on August 12, 1996. The Character and Fitness Committee conducted an investigation, held a hearing and recommended that Movant be reinstated to the practice of law. A trial commissioner was appointed and an evidentiary hearing was held on October 8,1998.
The Board of Governors has considered the entire record and determined that all of the standards set forth by this Court for reinstatement to the practice of law have been satisfied. In re Cohen, Ky., 706 S.W.2d 832 (1986). Applicant presented proof at his hearing that he voluntarily submitted to substance-abuse treatment, and that he has been drug-free since November 20, 1989. Applicant moved to Virginia following his suspension, and since that time has been employed by the Justice Department Immigration and Naturalization Service and by the Virginia Employment Commission.

The Director for the CLE certifies Movant is current with his CLE requirements.
Upon the foregoing facts, it is ordered that Movant’s motion for reinstatement to the practice of law be granted.
