Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

Having thoroughly reviewed the record, we agree that respondent committed the misconduct found by the board. However, we find the board’s recommendation inappropriate. Accordingly, we order that •respondent be placed on a six-month suspension, but that this sanction be suspended on the condition that he satisfactorily serve a two-year monitored probation period. Costs taxed to respondent.

Judgment accordingly.

Moyer, C.J., Sweeney, Wright and Resnick, JJ., concur. Holmes, J., dissents. Douglas and H. Brown, JJ., dissent without opinion.

Dissenting Opinion

Holmes, J.,

dissenting. I concur with the findings and recommendations adopted by the board of commissioners below, and thus I would not suspend respondent’s six-month suspension. Accordingly, I respectfully dissent.
