Opinion of the Court
This matter is before the Court on Respondent Roger A. Hun-sicker’s Petition for Voluntary Surrender of License, which he filed pursuant to Bar Rules 4-110 (f) and 4-227 (a). In the petition, Hun-sicker admits that he will enter a plea of guilty to a single count of child molestation, a felony violation of OCGA § 16-6-4. On April 9, 2001, Hunsicker entered the plea before the Superior Court of Henry County. Hunsicker admits that entry of the plea constitutes a violation of Rule 8.4 (a) (2) (conviction of a felony) of the Georgia Rules of Professional Conduct found at Bar Rule 4-102 (d) of the Rules and Regulations of the State Bar of Georgia.
We have reviewed the record and agree to accept Hunsicker’s petition for the voluntary surrender of his license, which is tantamount to disbarment. Bar Rule 4-110 (f). Accordingly, the name of Roger A. Hunsicker hereby is removed from the rolls of persons entitled to practice law in the State of Georgia. Hunsicker is reminded of his duties under Bar Rule 4-219 (c).
Voluntary surrender of license accepted.
Rule 8.4 formerly was Standard 66 of Bar Rule 4-102 (d).
