1DissentSears, Justice

For the reasons given in my dissenting opinion in the previous appearance of this case before this Court,31 believe that a public reprimand and restitution are appropriate sanctions for the respondent’s conduct.4 Accordingly, I respectfully dissent to the majority’s *838decision to impose a six-month suspension.

Decided September 21, 1998. William P. Smith III, General Counsel State Bar, K. Gene Chapman, Assistant General Counsel State Bar, for State Bar of Georgia.

I am authorized to state that Presiding Justice Fletcher joins in this dissent.
