No. 12-MC-50859

ORDER
At a session of said Court, held in
the U.S. Courthouse, Detroit, Michigan
on November 1, 2012.

Petitioner Jonathan C. Hirsch was suspended from the practice of law in the State of
Michigan for a period of one hundred seventy-nine (179) days commencing January 25,
2012. As a result of this “discipline,” Petitioner was suspended from the practice law before
the United States District Court and the United States Bankruptcy Court for Eastern District
of Michigan on June 12, 2012.
On July 25, 2012, Petitioner submitted an affidavit to the Attorney Discipline Board
seeking to be automatically reinstated. On July 26, 2012, the Attorney Discipline Board
issued a “Notice of Automatic Reinstatement.”
On September 12, 2012, Mr. Hirsch filed a Petition for Reinstatement to “practice law
in this Court.” This petition was assigned to the undersigned panel.
The panel has received a copy of the Grievance Administrator’s Reinstatement Report
which contains information upon which the suspension and sanctions were based. The panel
has carefully reviewed the Grievance Administrator’s Reinstatement Report and the

information which led to the suspension and sanctions, and the panel sees no further need for
any additional hearings on this matter. The Attorney Grievance Commission has not
indicated any objection to this Court granting Mr. Hirsch’s petition to be reinstated to
practice law in this court, and the Court has received no information that might call into
question Mr. Hirsch’s right to be admitted practice in this court.
Based on the information presented to this panel, the panel unanimously agrees that
Mr. Hirsch’s petition for reinstatement to practice law in this court should be granted.
Therefore,
IT IS ORDERED that Jonathan C. Hirsch’s license to practice law in the United States
District Court and the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Michigan
is hereby reinstated.
