DISSENT OF MEMBER RUDNITSKY:

I dissent on two grounds. First, contrary to the board majority on 48 D.B. 2000, I would have found the petitioner’s expert testimony to be compelling and consistent with other substantial evidence. Thus, the respondent engaged in a massive document fabrication to substantiate his false testimony, and I recommend disbarment. Second, while I join with the majority in finding yet another client neglect on 22 D.B. 2000,1 recommend the sanction of suspension of law practice for a year and a day.

No. 22 D.B. 1999

From 1986 to 1997,…
