1Per curiam

This disciplinary matter is before this court on an Order of the Board of Professional Responsibility (Board), dismissing the Hearing Committee’s finding of professional misconduct by Respondent. The Board concluded that Bar Counsel’s charges that Respondent failed in his duty of competent representation, in violation of D.C. Rules of PROf’l Conduct 1.1(a) 1 and 1.1(b), 2 for errors found in a probate petition, were not supported by substantial evidence in the record. Bar Counsel has filed an exception to the Board’s Order, arguing that Respondent should be informally admonished.
