UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO
EASTERN DIVISION
IN THE MATTER OF:
PERCY SQUIRE (#0022010)
RESPONDENT

Case No.: 1:11-MC-053-GLF

ORDER
On November 18, 2011, this Court issued an Order which required Respondent to show
cause why this Court should not impose the identical discipline that was imposed by the
Supreme Court of Ohio pursuant to Gov. Bar R. V(6)(B)(2), and in accordance with Rule II of
the Model Federal Rules of Disciplinary Enforcement, adopted by this Court on February 1,
1979. (ECF No. 1.) Respondent timely filed a response to the show cause order in which he
requested that this Court postpone any decision pending the Supreme Court of Ohio’s decision
on the Motion for Reconsideration that is currently pending before it. This Court granted
Respondent’s request. (ECF No. 3.)
On January 18, 2012, the Supreme Court of Ohio denied Respondent’s Motion for
Reconsideration. Respondent gave notice of said decision to this Court on January 24, 2012.
(ECF No. 5.) In light of the Supreme Court of Ohio’s disposition of Respondent’s Motion in that
Court, the matter pending before this Court may now move forward.
IT IS ORDERED that Respondent shall show cause, if any he has, on or before
February 17, 2012, of any claim under the grounds set forth in Section (D) of the aforementioned
Rule II of the Model Federal Rules of Disciplinary Enforcement, why this Court should not
impose the identical discipline on him heretofore imposed by the Supreme Court of Ohio.

Respondent is admonished that his failure to show cause by February 17, 2012, by a pleading
filed with the Clerk of Court shall be deemed a waiver of his rights in the premises and constitute
grounds for this Court to enter an Order imposing identical discipline.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Respondent shall not represent or continue to
represent any person in this Court until final resolution of this matter in this Court.
The Clerk of this Court shall cause a copy of this Order to be served on Respondent, by
certified mail, return receipt requested, at Percy Squire Co., LLC, 341 S. 3rd Street, Suite 101,
Columbus Ohio 43215, and to be published to this Court’s official website.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
