(concurring in result).
I concur in the result. I take exception to the discussion of punishment for wrongdoing found in the majority opinion. This court has often held that the purpose of disciplinary proceedings is not to punish but to remove unfit attorneys for the protection of the public. Matter of Discipline of Strange, 366 N.W.2d 495 (S.D.1985); Matter of Walker, 254 N.W.2d 452 (S.D.1977); In re Weisensee, 224 N.W.2d 830 (S.D.1975). Otherwise, I concur in the discussion of the failure of petitioner to meet the burden of establishing his fitness to be readmitted to practice law in this state.
