Disposition	Suspension stayed in whole
Effective Date of Disposition	12/05/1988
End Date of Disposition	12/05/1988
Definition of Disposition	The Supreme Court may order that a suspension be stayed in whole, typically in connection with an order of probation. A stay defers the suspension as long as the lawyer complies with probationary conditions. If the lawyer successfully completes probation, the lawyer is not actually suspended during any portion of the stayed suspension. Under those circumstances, the stayed suspension does not affect the authority of the lawyer to practice law and the lawyer may practice law during the stayed suspension. If the Court determines that the lawyer has failed to comply with probationary conditions, the Court may vacate the stay and may require that the lawyer actually serve the full suspension.

Disposition	Probation
Effective Date of Disposition	12/05/1988
End Date of Disposition	Probationary condition(s) continue.
Definition of Disposition	Probation reflects a determination that the lawyer has engaged in misconduct, but also a finding that the lawyer may continue to practice law pursuant to specified conditions under ARDC supervision without posing a risk to the public, profession, or courts. As a result, the lawyer may continue to practice law during the period of probation, subject to the conditions imposed by the Court. Probation may be ordered for a specified period of time or for a specified period of time and until further order of the Court. Probation may be ordered in conjunction with a suspension, which may be stayed in whole or in part. A stay defers that portion of the suspension as long as the lawyer complies with probationary conditions. If the lawyer successfully completes probation, the lawyer is not actually suspended during any portion of the stayed suspension.
