ORDER OF DISCHARGE FROM PROBATION

On February 2, 2024, the court suspended Mark A. Roy from the practice of law in the state of Kansas for a one-year period upon finding by clear and convincing evidence that Roy's conduct violated Kansas Rules of Professional Conduct 1.1(2023 Kan. S.Ct. R. at 327)(competence), 1.15 (2023 Kan S.Ct. R. at 372)(safekeeping property), 1.3 (2023 Kan. S.Ct R. at 331)(diligence), 1.5 (2023 Kan. S.Ct. R. at 333)(fees), and 8.4(g)(2023 Kan. S.Ct. R. at 433)(misconduct).The court stayed imposition of that discipline pending Roy's successful completion of a 12-month probation period.SeeIn re Roy, 318 Kan. 184, 197-98, 542 P.3d 321(2024).
