Opinion:
On May 23, 2002, in case No. 2002-0583, Columbus Bar Association v. Charles E. Smith, this court suspended respondent under an interim remedial suspension. On November 22, 2002, relator, Columbus Bar Association, filed a motion for order to appear and show cause, requesting the court to issue an order directing Charles E.
