                              ORDER REGARDING DISABILITY INACTIVE STATUS
                                  The State Bar and attorney Mark Peplowski filed a joint
                      petition alleging that Peplowski is suffering from a disability due to physical
                      infirmity, illness, or addiction that makes it impossible for him to defend a
                      pending disciplinary proceeding or to continue the practice of law. Based
                      on the petition, this court transferred him to disability inactive status and
                      referred the matter to a disciplinary board to determine Peplowski's
                      capacity to practice law. Thereafter, a hearing panel of the Southern
                      Nevada Disciplinary Board concluded Peplowski is incapacitated for the
                      purposes of practicing law because of mental infirmity, illness, or addiction
                      and recommends Peplowski remain on disability inactive status. Having
                      reviewed the record, we agree with the hearing panel's recommendation.




SUPREME COURT
        OF                                                                                   2.    ditto fo
     NEVADA


(0) 1947A al$IMIrc.
Accordingly, attorney Mark Peplowski shall remain on disability inactive
status and the pending disciplinary proceeding against him is suspended.
SCR 117(2).
              It is so ORDERED.'
