Case No. 96-3051-D November 15, 1996 On October 22, 1996, the Board of Attorneys Professional Responsibility filed a report recommending that the court grant the petition of John G. Kellogg that his license to practice law in Wisconsin be revoked by consent, pursuant to SCR 21.10(1), for professional misconduct.

Kellogg to practice law in Wisconsin is revoked, effective December 1, 1996. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that John G.
