## Opinion text

NEWMAN, Senior Judge,
concurring in result.
I join in denying Polin’s application for admission. In light of what my Brother Belson opines about future admissions if Polin continues his present course of rehabilitation, I write separately to reiterate my views expressed in In re Manville, 538 A.2d 1128, 1138 (D.C.1988) (Newman, J., dissenting).
