ORDER OF REINSTATEMENT
On December 1, 2017, this court indefinitely suspended the respondent Harry Louis Najim's license to practice law in Kansas retroactive to the May 15, 2015, order of temporary suspension. The court further ordered that the respondent undergo a reinstatement hearing under Supreme Court Rule 219(d) (2017 Kan. S. Ct. R. 263) prior to its consideration of any petition for reinstatement filed under Supreme Court Rule 219(b). In re Najim , 307 Kan. 76, 405 P.3d 1223 (2017).
On November 19, 2018, the respondent filed a petition for reinstatement. The Disciplinary Administrator agreed that sufficient time had passed for the court to reconsider the suspension order.

Administrator's investigation, the respondent appear for a reinstatement hearing before a hearing panel appointed by the Kansas Board for Discipline of Attorneys and that the reinstatement matter proceed pursuant to Rule 219. The court has since received the final hearing report detailing the panel's findings in support of its recommendation for reinstatement.

The court further finds such reinstatement should be conditioned upon the respondent's compliance with the annual continuing legal education requirements and upon his payment of all fees required by the Clerk of the Appellate Courts and the Kansas Continuing Legal Education Commission. See Supreme Court Rule 208 (adopted April 25, 2019) (attorney registration); Supreme Court Rule 811(b) (2019 Kan. S. Ct. R. 553) (continuing...
