N RE: CORRIE RUTH GALLIEN
PE
R CURIAM
The Office of Disciplinary Counsel filed a p etition seeking to transfer
respondent to disability inactive status after receiving information concerning her
mental condition. We issued an order transferring respondent to interim disability
inactive status pending an expedited hearing before a hearing committee. Following
a hearing, the hearing committee submitted its report t o this court, in which it
recommended that respondent be reinstated to active status subject to certain
specified conditions.
Based on our review of the record, we find the recommendation of the
committee is appropriate. Accordingly, we will reinstate respondent to active status
subject to the conditions recommended by the committee.
DE
CREE
For the reasons assigned, it is ordered that respondent, Corrie Ruth Gallien ,

a new one -year monitoring agreement with the Judges and Lawyers Assistance
Program. The new monitoring agreement shall incorporate the provisions set forth
by the hearing committee in its report. Respondent shall fully and completely adhere
to all terms of the monitoring agreement, and such other conditions as may be
imposed upon her by the Judges and Lawyers Assistance Program. The Office of
Disciplinary Counsel shall review respondent’s compliance with her monitoring
