JEFFREY C. MCKENZIE
MOVANT
IN SUPREME COURT
KENTUCKY BAR ASSOCIATION
RESPONDENT
OPIN ION AND ORDER
In an Opinion and Order entered February 23, 2006, this Court ordered that
Jeffrey C. McKenzie, whose KBA no. is 88061 ; and last known bar roster address is
3961 Old Ky 17, RR 3, Fort Mitchell, Kentucky,'41017, was suspended from the
practice of law until March 28, 2008, with 120 days to serve and the remainder probated
on the conditions that he : (1) abide by all the conditions of supervision by the Kentucky
Lawyer Assistance Program (KYLAP) as set forth in the "Supervision Agreement"
entered into on October 14, 2005; and (2) comply with all the terms of the "Program
Agreement" entered into with the Kentucky Board of Nursing, by and through the
Kentucky Alternative Recovery Effort (KARE) for Nurses, on March 28, 2003. Both
agreements required that he abstain from the use of drugs.
On November 14, 2006, the KBA filed a motion advising this Court that
McKenzie has failed to comply with this Court's Order by (1) not reporting to the KYLAP
Director on a monthly basis; (2) not abiding by the KYLAP and KARE agreements ;
(3) refusing to take a random drug test requested by the KYLAP Director ; and (4) failing
a random drug test, which he took at the direction of KARE. In support of its motion,
the KBA attached an affidavit from the KYLAP Director, C . Houston Ebert, which details
specific instances of McKenzie's non-compliance.
After being advised by the KBA that McKenzie had failed to comply with this
Court's Opinion and Order entered February 23, 2006, we issued a Show Cause Order
on January 25, 2007, providing McKenzie thirty (30) days to show cause why his
probation should not be revoked and the remainder of his suspension imposed .
McKenzie has not replied . Accordingly, upon motion of the KBA, it is hereby ordered
that Jeffrey C. McKenzie is suspended from the practice of law in the Commonwealth of
Kentucky, effective the date of this order, until March 28, 2008, and thereafter until
reinstated as provided by SCR 3.510 .
All sitting . All concur.
Entered April 19, 2007.
