    The record, however, also exhibits his full cooperation with the law enforcement and disciplinary investigations, his willingness to make full restitution, his remorse, and his potential for rehabilitation. Under these circumstances, the recommendation of relator and the board of an indefinite suspension is appropriate. Disciplinary Counsel v. Stanford (1993), 66 Ohio St.3d 39, 41, 607 N.E.2d 830, 831; see, also, Disciplinary Counsel v. Yajko (1997), 77 Ohio St.3d 385, 674 N.E.2d 684 (attorney's theft of funds from his law firm on twenty separate occasions, each involving a different client, warranted indefinite suspension). Accordingly, respondent is indefinitely suspended from the practice of law in Ohio. As a condition of his reinstatement, respondent must make full restitution to the various financial institutions in accordance with his federal sentence, and he must also make full restitution to Ochieng.
