On April 3,1995, Vivian E. Berg, Disciplinary Counsel, petitioned the Disciplinary Board for discipline of John H. Moosbrugger in connection with a conviction in United States District Court for the District of North Dakota for the filing of a fraudulent income tax return. The Petition alleged that the conviction is for a serious crime as defined by Rule 4.1(C), North Dakota Rules for Lawyer Discipline (NDRLD).
On April 26, 1995, Respondent Moosbrug-ger filed a Conditional Discipline by Consent Pursuant to Rule 4.2(A) of the North Dakota Rules for Lawyer Discipline. In the Consent, Respondent Moosbrugger acknowledged that the material facts as set forth in the Petition for Discipline are true but disputed the allegation that the conviction of a misdemeanor charge constitutes a conviction for a serious crime. Respondent Moosbrug-ger agreed that a reprimand is allowed and tendered consent to a reprimand under Rule 4.2(A), NDRLD.
