* IN THE ATTORNEY GRIEVANCE * COMMISSION OF MARYLAND SUPREME COURT * OF MARYLAND v. * AG Docket No. 49 ROBERT P. WALDECK * September Term, 2023 * ORDER

In its petition for disciplinary or remedial action, the Attorney Grievance

Commission alleges that respondent was disbarred by the Court of Appeals of the

District of Columbia for violation of Rules 1.3(a), 1.3(b)(1), 1.3(b)(2), 1.3(c), 1.4(a),

1.15(a), 1.15(b), 1.15(e), 1.16(d), 8.4(c), and 8.4(d) of the District of Columbia Rules

of Professional Conduct. Upon the filing of the petition and pursuant to Rule 19-

737(c), the Court issued an order requiring the parties to show cause why

corresponding discipline should not be imposed. Bar Counsel responded to the order

to show cause and recommends that respondent be disbarred. Respondent did not

respond to the order.

Upon consideration of the petition, it is this 25th day of July 2024, by the

Supreme Court of Maryland,

ORDERED that the Respondent, Robert P. Waldeck, is disbarred from the

practice of law in the State of Maryland effective immediately; and it is further

ORDERED that the Clerk of this Court shall strike the name of Robert P.

Waldeck from the register of attorneys in this Court and certify that fact to the Trustees

of the Client Protection Fund of the Bar of Maryland and all Clerks of all judicial tribunals in this State in accordance with Maryland Rule 19-761(b).
