Board of Professional Conduct Files Disciplinary Recommendations

The Ohio Board of Professional Conduct has filed reports with the Supreme Court of Ohio recommending the imposition of discipline against three Ohio attorneys.

Parties will have an opportunity to file objections to the Board’s reports and recommendations with the Supreme Court. If a party files objections, the Supreme Court will schedule the case for oral argument. Objections are not permitted in consent-to-discipline matters.
