THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA

In The Supreme Court

In the Matter of Mykel

Hitselberger, Respondent.

Opinion No. 24967

Submitted June 29, 1999 - Filed July 12, 1999

INDEFINITE SUSPENSION

Mykel Hitselberger, pro se.

Henry B. Richardson, Jr., for the Office of the

Disciplinary Counsel.





PER CURIAM: By order dated December 2, 1998, respondent

was indefinitely suspended from the practice of law in the State of Maryland.

A letter from the Clerk of this Court, dated May 20, 1999, notifying

respondent that he had thirty (30) days in which to inform this Court of any

reason the imposition of the identical discipline should not be imposed on

respondent in this state was sent to respondent at his last two known

addresses. See Rule 29(b), RLDE, Rule 413, SCACR. Both letters were

returned, one because the forwarding address had expired and the other

because the letter was unclaimed. The Court has not otherwise received a

response from respondent. Finding a sufficient attempt has been made to

serve notice on respondent, and finding none of the factors in Rule 29(d),

RLDE, Rule 413, SCACR, present in this matter, we hereby suspend

respondent indefinitely from the practice of law in this state. Within fifteen

(15) days of the date of this opinion, respondent shall file an affidavit with
