¶1*384ATTORNEY DISCIPLINARY PROCEEDINGS
¶2hThe Office of Disciplinary Counsel (“ODC”) commenced an investigation into allegations that respondent neglected a legal matter, failed to deposit an advance fee into a client trust account, and incorrectly reported on his trust account disclosure statement that he does not handle client funds. Prior to the filing of formal charges, respondent and the ODC submitted a joint petition for consent discipline. Having reviewed the petition,
¶3IT IS ORDERED that the Petition for Consent Discipline be accepted and that Ford J. Dieth, Louisiana Bar Roll number 4939, be suspended from the practice of law for a period of one year, with all but ninety days deferred, followed by a one-year period of unsupervised probation governed by the terms and conditions set forth in the Petition for Consent Discipline. The probationary period shall commence from the date respondent and the ODC execute a formal probation plan. Any failure of respondent to comply with the conditions of probation, or any misconduct during the probationary period, may be grounds for making the deferred portion of the suspension executory, or imposing additional discipline, as appropriate.
¶4IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that all costs and expenses in the matter are assessed against respondent in accordance with Supreme Court Rule XIX, § 10.1, with legal interest to commence thirty days from the date of finality of this court’s judgment until paid.
