Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

IN THE MATTER OF No. 76355 REINSTATEMENT OF RANDOLPH H. D GOLDBERG, BAR NO, 5970. DEL 2 8 2018 OLE

ORDER OF REINSTATEMENT This is an automatic review of a Southern Nevada Discipliliary Board hearing panel's recommendation to grant suspended attorney Randolph H. Goldberg's petition for reinstatement.' Goldberg was suspended from the practice of law for four years and nine months starting on April 25, 2013. He was also required to complete 12 CLE credits in office management and 3 additional CLE credits in ethics, pay a $5,000 fine, pay the costs of the disciplinary proceeding, and, upon reinstatement, have a mentor with a least 10 years of general practice experience for two years. Goldberg's suspension term has expired and the panel has recommended he be reinstated to the practice of law in Nevada subject to certain conditions. Based on our de novo review, we agree with the panel's conclusion that Goldberg has satisfied his burden in seeking reinstatement by clear and convincing evidence. See SCR 116(2); Application of Wright, 75 Nev. 111, 112-13, 335 P.3d 609, 610 (1959) (reviewing a petition for reinstatement de novo). We therefore approve the panel's recommendation that the petition be granted and Goldberg be reinstated subject to certain conditions. Accordingly, Randolph H. Goldberg is hereby reinstated to the practice of law in Nevada on the following conditions: Goldberg shall (1)
