       The Director of the Office of Lawyers Professional Responsibility filed a petition

for disciplinary action seeking reciprocal discipline under Rule 12( d), Rules on Lawyers

Professional Responsibility (RLPR), based on an order of the Virginia State Bar

Disciplinary Board suspending respondent Charles A. Price for 3 years. See In rePrice,

2014) (order). The Virginia suspension was based on Price's admissions that he violated

the Director filed a memorandum on the issue of the appropriate discipline.
