In Re: Reinstatement of Gary Segal ( 2015 )

 In its March 19, 2015, findings of fact, conclusions of law, and
recommendation, the hearing panel found that Segal had met his burden
for reinstatement. Thus, the panel recommended that Segal be reinstated
subject to a three-year probation from the effective date of reinstatement
subject to the following conditions: (1) double the CLE requirement for
each calendar year; (2) no solo practice; (3) a mentor agreement, with
quarterly reports and the mentor to be approved by the State Bar; (4) re-
taking the MPRE; 1 (5) payment of the costs of the disciplinary
proceedings, excluding staff salaries, offset by Segal's $1,000 advance
deposit already paid; and (6) no additional discipline during the probation
period for conduct occurring after reinstatement.
Based on our de novo review, we agree with the panel's
conclusion that Segal has met his burden for reinstatement with clear and
convincing evidence. See SCR 116(2) (requiring an attorney to
demonstrate "by clear and convincing evidence that he or she has the
moral qualifications, competency, and learning in law required for
admission to practice law in this state" and that the attorney's
"resumption of the practice of law will not be detrimental to the integrity
and standing of the bar, to the administration of justice, or to the public
interest"); Application of Wright, 75 Nev. 111, 112-13, 335 P.2d 609, 610
(1959) (reviewing a petition for reinstatement de novo). We therefore
approve the panel's recommendation that the petition be granted subject
to conditions. Accordingly, Gary M. Segal is hereby reinstated to the
practice of law, subject to the conditions set forth above. Segal shall pay
'While Segal has submitted to this court an MPRE score from March
2015, Segal shall submit his MPRE score to the state bar so that the bar
may verify that he has passed the MPRE.
