The petition is also based on an order from the Colorado Supreme Court transferring respondent to disability inactive status.

Respondent waives the procedural rights provided by Rule 28(e), RLPR, and admits the allegations of the petition. The parties jointly recommend that respondent be immediately transferred ta-, disability inactive status.

Based upon all the files, records, and proceedings herein,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT: ■
