The Ohio Board of Professional Conduct has filed four reports with the Supreme Court of Ohio.  Three reports recommend the imposition of discipline against Ohio attorneys. The fourth report recommends a disciplinary sanction for a judge who engaged in misconduct while serving in judicial office.

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.
