The Ohio Board of Professional Conduct has filed six disciplinary case reports with the Ohio Supreme Court.

• Four reports recommend discipline for each of four attorneys charged with professional misconduct.
• One report recommends reinstatement of an attorney who is currently suspended.
• One report contains findings made pursuant to a remand order from the Court.

The parties will have an opportunity to file objections to the board’s reports and recommendations with the Court. If a party files objections, the Court will schedule the case for oral argument. Objections are not permitted in a case submitted upon consideration of a consent-to-discipline agreement, and oral arguments are not scheduled in reinstatement proceedings.

Additional information about each case, including the report and recommendation, may be obtained by clicking on the Court case number. Questions regarding cases pending before the Court should be directed to the Office of Public Information at 614.387.9250.
