## Opinion text

Wright, J.,
dissenting. I must respectfully dissent. Respondent’s gross violations of DR 1-102(A)(3) and DR 1-102(A)(6) were too serious to merit the sanction invoked by the majority. I would suspend respondent at a minimum for an eighteen-month period, and I would consider a period of probation thereafter.
Resnick, J., concurs in the foregoing dissenting opinion.
