TOLEDO BAR ASSOCIATION v. DOYLE.

Attorneys at law — Misconduct — Public reprimand — Conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice — Conviction for obstructing official business — Removal of clients' criminal or traffic violation affidavits from the courthouse and keeping them in his possession, thus suspending all proceedings — Conduct contrary to a Disciplinary Rule.

Per Curiam.

We concur with the findings of the board; however, we modify the sanction. Respondent is hereby publicly reprimanded. Costs taxed to respondent.

Judgment accordingly.

SWEENEY, DOUGLAS, H. BROWN and RESNICK, JJ., concur.

MOYER, C.J., HOLMES and WRIGHT, JJ., dissent.

MOYER, C.J., dissenting.

I would order a six-month suspension, but would suspend same pending respondent's successful completion of a six-month supervised and monitored probation period.

WRIGHT, J., dissenting.

I believe the facts in this case justify a penalty substantially greater than a public reprimand, to wit, six months' actual suspension.

HOLMES, J., concurs in the foregoing dissenting opinion.
