Harrison be, and he is hereby, placed on inactive status until such time as he can demonstrate by proper evidence that he has sufficiently recovered his health, both mental and physical, to be reinstated as an active practitioner of the law in this State, and in order to facilitate such reinstatement, it is suggested that the respondent register with Lawyer Counseling of the Maryland State Bar Association to be evaluated and referred to appropriate facilities for treatment in compliance with its recommendations; and it is further
