    RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY J THOMAS PARKER* INTRODUCTION This Survey Article examines the significant developments in the Indiana law of professional responsibility from October 1, 2011 until September 30, 2012. The Indiana Supreme Court’s attorney disciplinary orders and changes the court makes to the Indiana Rules for the Admission and Discipline of Attorneys and the Indiana Rules of Professional Conduct are central to the subject of professional responsibility. Before examining the Indiana Supreme Court’s most significant decisions, the Article will take time to consider some trends and lessons that can be found in less noteworthy decisions. The Indiana Supreme Court publishes its decisions via the Internet,1 as well as through traditional media, making the review of attorney discipline decisions quite easy. From the first of October 2011 until the last of September of 2012, the Indiana Supreme Court issued eighty-five orders in regards to the discipline of the practicing bar.2 Of those eighty-five decisions, many can be categorized as “housekeeping”; they track the progress of individual matters rather than present the court’s definitive analysis and conclusions about specific allegations.3 Even these housekeeping matters, however, are worth considering. For example, there were several cases where the court suspended individuals for failing to cooperate4 * Chief of Staff, Indiana Prosecuting Attorneys Council.

The question was asked of several old students, "Of what does the much talked of Whittier Spirit consist—?" and the answer in- variably came hack,—"Service." Now catch if you can the idea of Service. Paint if you can one tiny part of it. That has been the ideal of each Junior class and to do it is almost impossible, limited as we are in many ways. The painting will remain unfinished until the names and deeds of those who have given to Whittier College, who are giving and who will always give are printed in one book. But this one great Acropolis remains to be printed and it will never he printed, although we work to that end, trying to paint our idea of Whittier Spirit so that we can give some- thing to the next generation.
