ORDER
By opinion dated August 14, 2013, Petitioner was suspended from the practice of law for a period of nine months. In re Holmes, 405 S.C. 174, 747 S.E.2d 492 (2013). After referral to the Committee on Character and Fitness, the Committee has filed a Report and Recommendation recommending the Court reinstate Petitioner to the practice of law subject to the conditions of reinstatement set forth in this Courts 2013 opinion.
We find Petitioner has met the requirements of Rule 33(f), RLDE, to be reinstated as a regular member of the South Carolina Bar. Therefore, we grant the petition for reinstatement upon the following conditions:
(1) Petitioner must enter into a three-year monitoring agreement with Lawyers Helping Lawyers (LHL);
(2) Petitioner must fully comply with appropriate treatment for his addiction for three years from the date of reinstatement;
(3) For three years from the date of reinstatement, Petitioner must submit three reports to the Commission on Lawyer Conduct each quarter, including an affidavit of compliance with the terms of his LHL contract and with the recommendations of his treatment provider; a statement from his LHL monitor regarding Petitioners compliance with the LHL contract; and a report of Petitioners diagnosis, treatment compliance and prognosis from Petitioners treatment provider;
(4) After the three-year period concludes, Petitioner must have his progress and compliance reviewed by an investigative panel of the Commission to determine whether the LHL contract and reporting requirements should be renewed, and if so, for how long; and
(5) Upon reinstatement, Petitioner must limit his practice to working for a law firm or other organization for at least one year, and if at the conclusion of that year he desires to become a solo practitioner, he will be permitted to do so only upon the approval of an investigative panel of the Commission.
