In the Matter of Attorneys in Violation of Judiciary Law § 468-a and 22 NYCRR 118.1, Respondents. Attorney Grievance Committees for the Fourth Judicial Department, Petitioner. |
Fourth Department, July 11, 2008
Per Curiam.
Petitioner moved to suspend respondents on the ground that they violated Judiciary Law § 468-a and 22 NYCRR 118.1 by failing to comply with attorney registration requirements. Petitioner alleged in support of the motion that respondents failed to respond to numerous written notices concerning their delinquency sent by the Office of Court Administration and by petitioner. This Court, by order entered January 17, 2008, directed respondents to show cause by the filing of a written response{**54 AD3d at 10} why an order should not be entered suspending them for their failure to comply with attorney registration requirements. Respondents failed to respond to the order to show cause.
The failure to comply with attorney registration requirements is a violation of Judiciary Law § 468-a and 22 NYCRR 118.1 and constitutes professional misconduct warranting the imposition of discipline (see Matter of Rinaldi, 304 AD2d 271 [2003]). Accordingly, we conclude that respondents, who are named on the attached list, should be immediately suspended until further order of this Court.
