Dayton Bar Ass'n v. Truman
Dayton Bar Ass'n v. Truman
Opinion of the Court
Upon review of the record, we concur in the board’s findings of misconduct and its recommendation. Respondent is therefore suspended from the practice of law in Ohio for one year, but six months of the sanction period are suspended on the condition that no disciplinary complaints against respondent are
Judgment accordingly.
Dissenting Opinion
dissenting. I respectfully dissent. Respondent embezzled over $16,000, and only admitted the conduct upon concluding that he would probably be caught through the IRS proceedings. Giving consideration to the mitigating factors recited in the majority decision, I nevertheless believe that anything less than a full one-year suspension would be an inadequate censure.
