MELTON, Justice,
dissenting.
In his petition for voluntary discipline, Detling requested that this Court impose an Investigative Panel reprimand, although he would also accept the harsher punishment of a Review Panel reprimand. Given the extent of the mitigating factors present in this case, I would accept Detling’s request for the imposition of an *258Investigative Panel reprimand, which is a lower level of discipline than that being imposed by the majority.
Decided May 31, 2011.
Cohen, Cooper, Estep & Allen, Gene Chapman, for Detling.
Paula J. Frederick, General Counsel State Bar, Kellyn O. McGee, Assistant General Counsel State Bar, for State Bar of Georgia.
I am authorized to state that Justice Benham and Justice Nahmias join in this dissent.
