N RE: EVE SARCO REARDON
AT
TORNEY DISCIPLINARY PROCEEDING
P
ER CURIAM
The Office of Disciplinary Counsel (“ODC”) commenced an investigation
into allegations that respondent improperly notarized three affidavits and signed her
name to documents finalizing a client’s settlement after the client passed away .
Respondent and the ODC submitted a joint petition for consent discipline in which
respondent admitted that her conduct violated Rules 3.3(a)(1), 3.3(a)(3), 8.4(a), and
8.4(d) of the Rules of Professional Conduct. Having reviewed the petition,
IT IS ORDERED that the Petition for Consent Discipline be accepted and that
Eve Sarco Reardon , Louisiana Bar Roll number 30710 , be suspended from the
practice of law for a period of one year and one day. All but six months of this
suspension shall be deferred, followed by a one-year period of probation subject to
the condition s set forth in the petition for consent discipline . The p robationary
period shall commence from the date respondent and the ODC execute a formal
probation plan. Any failure of respondent to comply with the conditions of
probation, or any misconduct during the probationary period, may be grounds for
making the deferred portion of the suspension executory, or imposing additional
discipline, as appropriate.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that all costs and expenses in the matter are
assessed against respondent in accordance with Supreme Court Rule XIX, § 10.1,
with legal interest to commence thirty days from the date of finality of this court’s
judgment until paid.
