Annot. 583) (termination of representation); 8.1 (2014 Kan. Ct. R. Annot. 670) (bar admission and disciplinary matters); and 8.4 (2014 Kan. Ct. R. Annot. 680) (misconduct).

This court, having examined the files of the office of the Disciplinary Administrator, finds that tire surrender of the respondent’s license should be accepted and that the respondent should be disbarred.

It is further ordered that tire Clerk of the Appellate Courts strike the name of Yehlen D. Brooks, f/k/a Mary Yehlen Brooks from the roll of attorneys licensed to practice law in Kansas.

[*452] It is further ORDERED that this order shall be published in the Kansas Reports, that the costs herein shall be assessed to the respondent, and that the respondent forthwith shall comply with Supreme Court Rule 218 (2014 Kan. Ct. R. Annot. 414).

Dated this 2nd day of March, 2015.
