Case Name: Office of Lawyer of Regulation v. Nicholas C. Kefalos
Case No.: 2019 WI 94
Focus: Attorney Disciplinary Hearing – Reciprocal Discipline
This is a reciprocal discipline matter. On May 14, 2019, the Office of Lawyer Regulation (OLR) filed a complaint and motion pursuant to Supreme Court Rule (SCR) 22.22, requesting this court suspend Attorney Nicholas C. Kefalos’ license to practice law in Wisconsin for a period of six months, as discipline reciprocal to that imposed by the Supreme Court of Illinois. Upon review, we agree that it is appropriate to impose a six-month suspension, identical to that imposed by the Supreme Court of Illinois.
