Topic: Bar discipline - Miss. R. Discipline 13 - Public reprimand
Summary of the Facts: The Mississippi Bar filed a formal complaint against attorney Daniel Inserra. Inserra is currently administratively suspended in Mississippi for non-payment of dues. The Supreme Court previously imposed a public reprimand against Inserra as a reciprocal sanction pursuant to Rule 13 of the Mississippi Rules of Discipline for his two-year probation imposed by the Supreme Court of Arizona. In 2005, the Supreme Court of Arizona issued a Judgment and Order censuring Inserra and placing him on probation for a period of one year. The Mississippi Bar then initiated disciplinary proceedings against Inserra under Rule 13 of the Mississippi Rules of Discipline.
Summary of Opinion Analysis: The Court accepts, pursuant to Miss. R. Discipline 13, the disciplinary action of the Supreme Court of Arizona as conclusive proof of his disciplinary violation. Reciprocal sanctions in the form of a public reprimand are warranted.
