OPINION

MATTHEWS, Justice.

I. INTRODUCTION

The Disciplinary Board has recommended that attorney Jon E. Wiederholt be disbarred because, in one ease, he filed a pleading and affidavit stating that his client’s judgment had not been satisfied when he knew that the judgment had been satisfied, and, in another case, he forged his client’s signature as an endorsement to a check. Having independently reviewed the evidence presented before the Hearing Committee, we agree with the factual findings of the Disciplinary Board, and accept the recommendation that Wiederholt be disbarred.
