f 31. SHIRLEY S. ABRAHAMSON, J. (concurring in part and dissenting in part). A criminal conviction of OWI by a Wisconsin licensed lawyer does not in and of itself automatically constitute professional misconduct. See State v. Adent, 2016 WI 19, ¶ 18, 367 Wis. 2d 372, 877 N.W.2d 364 (Abrahamson, J., dissenting). Although I agree with many parts of the per curiam, I conclude that imposing a 60-day suspension in light of Attorney Horsch's prior disciplinary history, including a private reprimand for a criminal conviction of OWI, third offense, is an insufficient sanction.
