## Opinion text

STRAS, Justice
(concurring in part, dissenting in part).
I join the court’s opinion, except the conclusion that the appropriate sanction for Judge Pendleton’s misconduct is removal from office. Based on our decision in In re Karasov, 805 N.W.2d 255 (Minn. 2011), I would censure Judge Pendleton and impose a 6-month suspension from judicial office without pay.
