Text: On or about May 18, 1978, the Office of Disciplinary Counsel filed a petition for discipline against respondent, asserting that respondent’s conduct in mailing in January of 1978 a number of documents to members of the general public who were not at the time clients of respondent and who had not at the time sought to be represented by him violated two Disciplinary Rules: D.R. 2-103(A) and D.R. 2-103(B). On or about June 15, 1978, respondent filed an answer admitting that he had mailed the documents in question, but denying that this mailing violated either of the Disciplinary Rules in question. Subsequently, the parties agreed upon a stipulation of facts which was reduced to writing and offered as Exhibit 1 at a hearing before this hearing committee on February 1, 1979. Since with minor exceptions, Exhibit 1 is the record here, the hearing committee adopts that stipulation and the annexed exhibits as its “Findings of Fáct.”
