Respondent and the ODC then submitted a joint petition for consent discipline, in which the parties stipulated that respondent violated the Rules of Professional Conduct and that disbarment is warranted. Having reviewed the petition,

IT IS ORDERED that the Petition for Consent Discipline be accepted and that Michael Wayne Kelly, Louisiana Bar Roll number 23159, be and he hereby is disbarred. His name shall be stricken from the roll of attorneys and his license to practice law in the State of Louisiana shall be revoked.
