In re Disciplinary Action against Hauge

Hauge is disbarred from the practice of law in the State of Minnesota, effective as of the date of the filing of this order. 2. Respondent shall comply with Rule 26, RLPR (requiring notice of disbarment to clients, opposing counsel, and tribunals). 3. Respondent shall pay $900 in costs pursuant to Rule 24, RLPR.
