The opinion

KNOLL, J.,

concurring in part and dissenting in part.

|, While I agree that respondent violated the Rules of Professional Conduct, I disagree that his violation warrants a six-month suspension from the practice of law. I find that respondent’s conduct was more in the nature of a negligent failure to supervise his staff, rather than knowing or intentional. Therefore, I would impose a less significant sanction than the majority imposes.
