Opinion
January 2, 2003.
Respondent was suspended from practice for a period of one year, effective November 28, 2000 (Matter of Cannon, 284 A.D.2d 721). He now applies for reinstatement. Petitioner opposes the application.
Mark S. Ochs, Committee on Professional Standards, Albany, (Michael Philip Jr. of counsel), for petitioner.
Patrick J. Cannon, Stamford, respondent pro se.
Before: Mercure, J.P., Peters, Spain, Rose and Lahtinen, JJ.
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Because we conclude that respondent has not made the showing upon which an application for reinstatement may be granted (see 22 NYCRR 806.12 [b]), we deny his application for reinstatement. We note, for example, that respondent has not submitted proper medical opinion that he has the psychological capacity to practice law and he still maintains open estate files and an escrow account with a balance due and owing to clients.
Mercure, J.P., Peters, Spain, Rose and Lahtinen, JJ., concur.
ORDERED that respondent's application for reinstatement is denied.
