I concur in holding that the board had no power to make or enter its judgment of disbarment because the hearing was not upon a charge of unprofessional conduct; that "petitioner cannot be disbarred solely because of the conviction" for the reasons stated; and that this holding "disposes of the case for the reason that the record of conviction is the sole ground on which disbarment is sought"; and in the opinion thus far.
I do not concur in passing further upon the propriety of disbarring or not disbarring petitioner under the inherent power of the court. Even a proceeding under such inherent power should not be taken "until a formal charge has been preferred." (In re Edwards,
45 Idaho 676 ,266 P. 665 .) The question is not here.I am authorized to say that Judge Varian concurs with me.
Givens, J., dissents.
