WI Supreme Court

Case Name: Office of Lawyer Regulation v. Daniel J. Rostollan

Case No.: 2018 WI 38

Focus: Attorney Disciplinary Proceedings

We review Referee Jonathan V. Goodman’s amended report recommending that this court suspend Attorney Daniel J. Rostollan’s license to practice law in Wisconsin for a period of two years and direct him to pay restitution as well as the costs of this proceeding.

No appeal has been filed so we review the referee’s report pursuant to Supreme Court Rule (SCR) 22.17(2). After conducting an independent review of the matter, we agree that Attorney Rostollan should be deemed to have defaulted, we accept and adopt the referee’s findings of fact and conclusions of law, which are based on the allegations of the complaint filed by the Office of Lawyer Regulation (OLR). We agree that Attorney Rostollan’s law license should be suspended for two years and that he should be directed to pay restitution. We impose the full costs of this proceeding on Attorney Rostollan, which are $2,663.71 as of January 30, 2018.
