On May 12, 2010, relator, Ohio State Bar Association, filed a motion requesting this court to issue an order directing respondent to show cause why he should not be found in contempt of this court’s December 7, 2005 order for continuing to practice law and for failing to pay the civil penalty. On June 10, 2010, this court ordered respondent to appear in person before the court on July 6, 2010. Respondent did not appear before the court on the scheduled date.

Oatess, shall serve 30 days in jail and that a warrant be issued for his arrest to the Sheriff of Muskingum County and to the sheriffs of such other counties as the eontemnor may frequent.

It is further ordered, sua sponte, that the Clerk of the Supreme Court of Ohio is authorized to release to the appropriate law enforcement officials any information concerning respondent that is otherwise confidential, including respondent’s Social Security number, for the purpose of facilitating execution of the warrant issued for the arrest of respondent.

It is further ordered, sua sponte, that all documents filed with this court in this case shall meet the filing requirements set forth in the Rules of Practice of the Supreme Court of Ohio, including requirements as to form, number, and timeliness of filings.
