1Opinion of the Court
HARRIS, Associate Judge:
The Report and Recommendation of this court’s Board on Professional Responsibility in a disciplinary matter involving George F. Knox, Sr., is before us for review. The Board recommends that respondent be suspended from the practice of law for six months. We accept the Board’s findings of fact as being supported by substantial evidence of record, but conclude that its recommended disposition is unwarranted on the facts of this case. We conclude that a three-month suspension is the appropriate sanction.
