Hunstein, Justice,

¶1dissenting.

¶2I dissent to the majority’s decision to accept Calhoun’s petition for voluntary discipline in which he requests a six-month suspension for his admitted violation of Standard 66. Consistent with my position in previous disciplinary cases, I would instead disbar Calhoun based on his felony conviction.

¶3I am authorized to state that Justice Thompson joins in this dissent.
