FILED United States Court of Appeals Tenth Circuit November 6, 2007 PUBLISH Elisabeth A. Shumaker Clerk of Court UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT In the matter of the Complaint filed by PATRICK LYNN, ________________________ PATRICK LYNN, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. CHARLES ROGERS; STEPHEN G. MIRAKIAN; LINDEN APPEL; and JULIE ST. PETER, Defendants-Appellees. Case No. 07-3234 (D. Kan.) (D.C. No. 07-0102-AD) ORDER Before TACHA, Chief Circuit Judge, HENRY and HARTZ, Circuit Judges. This is an appeal from a district court order dismissing appellant's disciplinary complaints against four attorneys, Charles Rogers, Stephen G. Mirakian, Linden Appel, and Julie St. Peter, and from an order denying appellant's motion for reconsideration. A private citizen does not have standing to initiate or maintain a disciplinary proceeding, or to appeal if a court declines to discipline an attorney. See, e.g., Mattice v. Meyer, 353 F. 2d 316 (8th Cir. 1965). This appeal is DISMISSED. Entered for the Court ELISABETH A. SHUMAKER Clerk of Court 2
