In Re: Discipline of Brian Bloomfield

SCR 111(7) states that "[f]or good cause, the court may set aside its order suspending the attorney from the practice of law." Bloomfield has filed a combined opposition to the State Bar's petition for temporary suspension and a countermotion to set aside the suspension. We conclude that Bloomfield has failed to demonstrate good cause to set aside the mandatory suspension. SCR 111(7); see In re Discipline of Trujillo, 24 P.3d 972, 979 (Utah 2001). We refer this matter to the Southern Nevada Disciplinary Board for the initiation of formal disciplinary proceedings in which the sole issue to be determined is the extent of discipline to be imposed. SCR 111(8). It is so ORDERED.
