The intent of our original order, dated November 30, 1992, was to adopt respondent’s alternate proposal, as modified by the disciplinary board, allowing respondent limited practice during the first year of her deferred suspension in the area of poverty law or representation of indigents, but excluding her from representing battered women. 608 So.2d 185. A copy of that recommendation is annexed to this order.

ORTIQUE, J., not on panel.

RECOMMENDATIONS BY DISCIPLINARY BOARD TO THE SUPREME COURT OF LOUISIANA

Considering the affidavit of consent filed by Victoria Alexander, disciplinary counsel’s concurrence in consent discipline, and the supplemental statement submitted by Ms. Alexander and disciplinary counsel, the Disciplinary Board approves of the proposed discipline.

During the year of limited practice in the area of poverty law, Ms. Alexander will not be allowed to represent battered women in civil or criminal matters.
3. After the first year of the deferred three year suspension, Ms. Alexander will be allowed an unlimited practice of law, subject to two (2) years of supervised probation. Anne E. Tate, a member in good standing of the Louisiana State Bar, shall act as supervisor of Ms. Alexander’s probation in the manner and as agreed to in writing with disciplinary counsel.
