IT IS ORDERED that the Petition for Consent Discipline be accepted, and that Leo D. Lawrence, Louisiana Bar Roll number 18686, be suspended from the practice of law in Louisiana for a period of ninety days, fully deferred.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that all costs and expenses in the matter are assessed against respondent in accordance with Supreme Court Rule XIX, § 10.1, with legal interest to commence thirty days from the date of finality of this court’s judgment until paid.
