It Is Further Ordered that the Clerk of the Appellate Courts strike the name of Janell Jenkins Foster from the roll of attorneys licensed to practice law in Kansas.

It Is Further Ordered that this order shall be published in the official Kansas Reports, that the costs herein shall be assessed to the respondent, and that the respondent forthwith shall comply with Supreme Court Rule 218 (2007 Kan. Ct. R. Annot. 337).
