Ohio Supreme Court
Office of Disciplinary Counsel v. Williams, 66 Ohio St. 3d 71 (Ohio 1993)
609 N.E.2d 149; 1993 Ohio LEXIS 688
Douglas, Moyer, Pfeifer, Resnick, Sweeney, Wright

Office of Disciplinary Counsel v. Williams

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

We concur in the board’s findings, but we cannot follow its recommendation. Williams knowingly conspired to launder what he thought to be profits from illegal drug sales. Such conduct speaks for itself. Disbarment is the only appropriate sanction.

Accordingly, we order that Farris E. Williams be permanently disbarred from the practice of law in Ohio. Costs taxed to respondent.

Judgment accordingly.

Moyer, C.J., A.W. Sweeney, Douglas, Wright, Resnick, F.E. Sweeney and Pfeifer, JJ., concur.
