RESPONDENT

ORDER

Robert R. Lech, Respondent, entered into a voluntary settlement with the United States

Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) in which he agreed to a ninety day suspension from the
practice of law. On May 10, 2017 the Ohio Supreme Court issued a reciprocal suspension. In
response, this Court issu^ an Order to Show Cause why the Respondent should not be suspended
from practice before this Court.

Respondent contends, correctly, that he has now served his ninety day suspension and that
further action would enlarge the period agreed to in the settlement agreement with the USPTO.
The Order issued by this Court three days ago is VACATED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
