KENTUCKY BAR ASSOCIATION
RESPONDENT
OPINION AND ORDER
Movant, Jack W. Richendollar, whose last known address is 206-A 28th Street,
Catlettsburg, Kentucky, desires to terminate Kentucky Bar Association proceedings
against him by consenting to a suspension from the practice of law pursuant to SCR
3.480(3). Specifically, he moves that he be suspended for three years or until such
time that his term of probation expires in a criminal matter, his involvement in which
resulted in his automatic suspension. The KBA has no objection to the motion for
termination of proceedings.
On March 8, 2001, Richendollar pied guilty to Count I of a federal indictment
charging him with knowingly and intentionally possessing with intent to distribute a
mixture or substance containing a detectible amount of cocaine in violation of Title 21,
U.S.C. § 841(a)(l) and Title 21, U.S.C. § 846, a felony. Pursuant to SCR 3.166(l), we
entered an order of indefinite suspension on May 24, 2001. Kentuckv Bar Association
v. Richendollar, KY., 44 S.W.3d 375 (2001). This suspension superseded the
automatic suspension that was put in place when Richendollar entered his guilty plea
on March 8, 2001. Id.

1. Movant, Jack W. Richendollar, is hereby suspended from the practice of law
in the Commonwealth of Kentucky for a period of three (3) years or until his term of
probation expires, whichever is later in time, effective from March 8, 2001, the date on
which Richendollar’s automatic suspension began. The suspension shall continue until
such time as Richendollar is reinstated to the practice of law by order of this Court
pursuant to SCR 3.510, or any controlling amendment to SCR 3.510.
2. In accordance with SCR 3.450, Richendollar is directed to pay all costs
associated with these disciplinary proceedings against him, said sum being $13.19, and
for which execution may issue from this Court upon finality of this Opinion and Order.
3. Pursuant to SCR 3.390, Richendollar shall, within ten (10) days from the entry
of this order, notify all clients in writing of his inability to represent them, and notify all
courts in which he has matters pending of his suspension from the practice of law, and
