In re Butler, Benjamin , 07CH0040
Disposition Suspension for a specified period
Effective Date of Disposition 12/03/2010
End Date of Disposition 01/02/2011
Definition of Disposition Suspension for a specified period reflects a determination that the lawyer has engaged in misconduct and that the misconduct warrants an interruption of the lawyer's authority to practice law during the suspension period, which is a fixed period of time identified in the Supreme Court's order. The lawyer is not authorized to practice law during the period of the suspension.
Case Summary Mr. Butler, who was licensed in Illinois in 2004, was suspended for thirty days. He was convicted in the Circuit Court of Green Lake County, Wisconsin, of felony second degree reckless endangerment, after engaging in sexual activity with a woman on the hood of an automobile in a public area. He was sentenced to three years probation, a term of one year and six-months confinement, stayed in full, and he was ordered to complete 300 hours of community service. The suspension is effective on December 3, 2010.
