Focus: Attorney Disciplinary Proceedings

We review Referee John B. Murphy’s recommendation that Attorney Alan R. Stewart be declared in default and that his license to practice law in Wisconsin be suspended for 60 days for professional misconduct. The referee also recommended that Attorney Stewart pay the full costs of the proceeding, which are $805.85 as of October 11, 2017.

We declare Attorney Stewart to be in default. We agree with the referee that Attorney Stewart’s professional misconduct warrants a 60-day suspension of his license to practice law in Wisconsin. We also agree that Attorney Stewart should pay the full costs of this proceeding.
