# Ohio Board of Professional Conduct Files Seven Disciplinary Case Reports

The Ohio Board of Professional Conduct has filed seven reports with the Supreme Court of Ohio. Two reports recommend that the Supreme Court impose disciplinary sanctions against Ohio attorneys based on the submission of consent-to-discipline agreements, while one report recommends that a petition for reinstatement to the legal profession be denied.

Parties who have not consented to discipline may file objections to the Board’s reports and recommendations with the Supreme Court. If objections are filed, the Court will schedule the case for oral argument.
