Lorain County Bar Ass'n v. Pincura

Ohio Supreme Court

Decided March 31, 1999No. 98-2683Published

1Per curiam

We adopt the findings and conclusions of the board. In determining the appropriate sanction, we find that respondent’s violation of DR *2987-101(A)(2) constituted an isolated act in a lengthy legal career and that respondent fully and promptly cooperated in the disciplinary proceeding. We find further that respondent expressed genuine remorse for his actions, and that there was no evidence of quantifiable harm to his client. Based on the foregoing, we agree with the parties and the board that a public reprimand is the appropriate sanction. See Stark Cty. Bar Assn. v. Tscholl (1991), 57 Ohio St.3d…
