## Opinion text

MACK, Associate Judge,
dissenting:
I would affirm the holding of the Board that “surrounding circumstances” do not warrant a finding of moral turpitude that would trigger disbarment under D.C.Code § ll-2503(a). I would not dismiss, however, but would impose a sanction less than that of disbarment.
