R. Prof. Conduct 1.3, 1.4(a)(3) and (4), 3.2, 4.1, 8.1(b), and 8.4(c) and (d), and Rule 25, Rules on Lawyers Professional Responsibility (RLPR).

Respondent waives his procedural rights under Rule 14, RLPR, and unconditionally admits the allegations in the petition for disciplinary action and the supplementary petition for disciplinary action.
