Disciplinary Counsel v. Hunter

Summary

The Ohio Supreme Court affirmed the Board of Professional Conduct’s findings that attorney Jeffrey D. Hunter committed numerous violations of the Rules of Professional Conduct and imposed a two‑year suspension with the final six months conditionally stayed, contingent on restitution and completion of an OLAP assessment. The Court rejected the dissenting judges’ call for permanent disbarment, finding the aggravating factors outweighed the limited mitigating evidence.
