1Opinion of the CourtCordy, J.
An information and record of proceedings was filed in the Supreme Judicial Court for Suffolk County with the *552recommendation of the Board of Bar Overseers (board) that Daniel W. Goldstone be disbarred. The basis of the board’s recommendation was its finding, inter alla, that Goldstone intentionally overbilled and collected hundreds of thousands of dollars in fees and costs to which he was not entitled, thereby converting and misappropriating client funds. A single justice reserved and reported the case to the full court. We conclude that disbarment is warranted.
