283 A.D.2d 920 (N.Y. App. Div. 2001)

Opinion

Filed May 2, 2001.

Appeal from Order of Oneida County Surrogate's Court, Ringrose, S. — EPTL.

PRESENT: PINE, J.P., HAYES, HURLBUTT, SCUDDER AND LAWTON, JJ.


Order unanimously affirmed without costs.

Memorandum:

Although Surrogate's Court properly determined that respondents' attorneys are disqualified, the court erred in determining that they are disqualified pursuant to subdivision (b) of Code of Professional Responsibility DR 5-102 ( 22 NYCRR 1200.21). The proper subdivision pursuant to which they are disqualified is subdivision (c). We have examined respondents' remaining contentions and conclude that they are without merit.
