In orders issued through June 27, the state Supreme Court disciplined 18 attorneys, disbarring three, revoking the license of one, suspending 11 and reprimanding three.

Two practice in Jacksonville.

• Kenneth L. Williams, 8646 Tristan Drive, received a public reprimand administered by appearance before the referee and attendance at Ethics School, effective immediately, following a May 29 court order.

Williams willfully refused to obey a court order to proceed to jury trial after his request for a continuance was denied.

• Jennifer Ann Zarka, 7144 Madrid Ave., is suspended for one year, and a four-year probation upon reinstatement, effective 30 days following a June 5 court order.

This is a reciprocal discipline action based on discipline imposed against Zarka in Texas.

She received a five-year probated suspension with one-year active suspension for failure to promptly comply with requests from her client regarding the status of his legal matter, failure to hold real estate proceeds in trust or promptly deposit the sale proceeds into a court registry, and for making a false statement of material fact at a hearing held in the Texas Bar discipline matter.
