ORDER ACCEPTING RESIGNATION AND CONCLUDING PROCEEDING
On November 8, 1995, the Indiana Supreme Court Disciplinary Commission filed an Amended Verified Complaint for Disciplinary Action in this case. Thereafter, the respondent, Paul J. Newman, tendered his “Affidavit of Resignation ” pursuant to Ind.Admission and Discipline Rule 23, Section 17.
Having reviewed these matters, this Court now finds that the respondent’s affidavit meets the necessary elements of Admis.Disc.R. 23(17), that the resignation should be accepted and that, accordingly, all other proceedings pending in this case should be concluded.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that the resignation of Paul J. Newman is accepted, that he is hereby removed as a member of the Bar of this State, and that the Clerk of this Court is directed to strike his name from the Roll of Attorneys. The respondent must comply with the provisions of Admis.Disc.R. 23(4) in order to become eligible for reinstatement.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that, by reason of this Order accepting the respondent’s resignation, all issues not previously adjudicated in this proceeding are now concluded.
The Clerk of this Court is directed to give notice of this Order in accordance with Ad-mis.Disc.R. 23(3)(d), governing disbarment and suspension.
