In Re Bailey

KRAMER, Associate Judge:

This reciprocal discipline matter stems from respondent’s suspension from the practice of law by Virginia for three years, effective April 19, 2005, for violating Rule 8.1(a) of the Virginia Rules of Professional Conduct. 1 We adopt the recommendation of our Board on Professional Responsibility of a reciprocal three-year suspension, with reinstatement conditioned on a showing of fitness to practice law.
