Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

MILLER, Chief Justice (on reassignment).

[¶ 1] The South Dakota State Bar initiated formal attorney disciplinary proceedings resulting in a recommendation from the Disciplinary Board for a public censure. After a hearing, the Referee (Circuit Judge Jack Von Wald) recommended a private reprimand. Although we adopt his findings, we respectfully reject the Referee's recommendation and determine the appropriate disciplinary action to be public censure.
