¶3 Attorney Hubatch was admitted to the practice of law in Wisconsin in 2004. His law license was suspended effective October 31, 2007, for failure to pay State Bar dues. His license remains suspended. Attorney Hubatch has not previously been the subject of professional discipline.

¶4 The stipulation states that on January 11, 2013, Attorney Hubatch donned a Bucky Badger hat and robbed a Madison, Wisconsin, credit union of $500 while in possession of a toy gun. Within the following week, after being spotted publicly wearing the Bucky Badger hat, Attorney Hubatch confessed to a Madison detective that he had robbed the credit union.

¶6 On July 2, 2013, the OLR filed a complaint alleging that by engaging in conduct leading to a conviction for felony armed robbery, Attorney Hubatch violated SCR 20:8.4(b).

¶7 On July 16, 2013, the parties entered into a stipulation whereby Attorney Hubatch agreed that his conduct violated SCR 20:8.4(b). He further agreed that it would be appropriate for this court to impose the level of discipline sought by the OLR director, namely, a three-year suspension of his license to practice law in Wisconsin.

¶8 Attorney Hubatch avers the stipulation did not result from plea bargaining. He represents he fully understands the misconduct allegations and ramifications should the court impose a three-year license suspension. He also states he fully understands his right to contest the matter and his right to consult with counsel. He represents that his entry into the stipulation is made knowingly and voluntarily.

¶9 Having carefully considered this matter, we approve the stipulation and adopt the stipulated facts and legal conclusion of professional misconduct. We also agree that, given the serious nature of the misconduct, a three-year suspension of Attorney Hubatch's license to practice law is appropriate. We note that we have previously imposed three-year license suspensions in cases where attorneys have been convicted of criminal offenses. For example, in In re Disciplinary Proceedings Against Calhoun, 196 Wis. 2d 665, 538 N.W.2d 797 (1995), an attorney's license was suspended for three years as discipline for conduct that resulted in two convictions for possession and delivery of cocaine and for numerous misrepresentations to the sentencing court, the prosecutor, and physicians regarding the attorney's use of cocaine and the type of treatment he had pursued for his addiction. In the instant case, we find that a three-year suspension of Attorney Hubatch's license to practice law will protect the public, the courts and the legal system from repetition of the misconduct, will impress upon Attorney Hubatch the seriousness of his misconduct, and will deter other attorneys from committing similar misconduct.

¶10 IT IS ORDERED that the license of Randi H. Hubatch to practice law in Wisconsin is suspended for three years, effective the date of this order.
