The Ohio Board of Professional Conduct has filed five case reports with the Supreme Court of Ohio. Four reports recommend the imposition of disciplinary sanctions against Ohio attorneys, and one report recommends the reinstatement of a previously suspended attorney.

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.

Additional information about each case, including the report and recommendation, may be obtained by clicking on the Supreme Court case number.
