Description

For about two years, respondent, an attorney in Harford County, engaged in a course of professional and private conduct that was inappropriate, rude, vulgar, insulting, occasionally dangerous, and sometimes criminal. As a result, Bar Counsel filed a petition for disciplinary action, alleging not only that respondent engaged in misconduct, but also that he was incompetent, i.e., unable to render adequate legal service by reason of a mental or physical illness or infirmity. Pursuant to our direction, the charges were heard by Judge J. William Hinkel, who found by clear and convincing evidence that respondent was guilty of misconduct, but that the evidence was insufficient to show that he was incompetent. Respondent filed exceptions to the findings of misconduct. Bar Counsel filed no exceptions, and recommended a two year suspension.
