## Opinion text

Per Curiam.
This court finds that respondent violated the aforementioned Disciplinary Rule. While we adopt the board’s findings, we find that respondent’s conduct requires a more severe sanction than that recommended by the board. Accordingly, respondent is hereby ordered suspended from the practice of law in Ohio for one year. Costs taxed to respondent.
Judgment accordingly.
Moyer, C.J., Sweeney, Locher, Douglas, Wright and H. Brown, JJ., concur.
Holmes, J., dissents.
