In Re: Discipline of James Colin ( 2016 )

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA IN THE MATTER OF DISCIPLINE OF No. 70179 FILED JAMES A. COLIN, BAR NO. 6257. JUL 2 2 2016 TRAC ; K. L! DEMAN E ' 0" BY la Era 4 DEP , COL, "" .7" K- ORDER DECLINING TO IMPOSE TEMPORARY SUSPENSION This is a petition under SCR 111 concerning attorney James Colin, based on a conviction for battery, a misdemeanor in violation of NRS 200.481. Cohn self-reported the conviction to the State Bar as required by SCR 111(2). Because the conviction is not for a "serious crime" as defined in SCR 111(6), temporary suspension and referral for disciplinary proceedings are not mandatory. SCR 111(7), (8). Having considered the petition and supporting documentation, we conclude that Colin's offense is a minor one that does not warrant the imposition of a temporary suspension or referral to a disciplinary board at this time. See SCR 111(9). 1 It is so ORDERED. S tA—k SASS Hardesty Saitta 'Colin filed three motions that collectively sought to disqualify all sitting members of this court. He subsequently filed a motion to withdraw the disqualification motions. The motion to withdraw, filed on July 6, 2016, is granted. SUPREME COURT OF NEVADA (0) 1947A c4)73771A) 22Sol cc: C.
