Michael’s comment:
“Readmitted to practice by the Florida Supreme Court in May 2012 with all conditions of probation successfully completed in May 2015. The Florida Bar has closed this file after successful completion of probation and conditions. Suspension was for personal issues not involving clients or negligence in the practice of law. Details can be viewed at the Florida Bar website in the report of the referee dated March 23, 2007.”
