In re Levine

*243OPINION OF THE COURT

Per Curiam.

Daniel H. Levine has submitted an affidavit dated April 5, 2004, wherein he tenders his resignation as an attorney and counselor-at-law (see 22 NYCRR 691.9). Mr. Levine was admitted to the bar at a term of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the Second Judicial Department on February 9, 1983, under the name Daniel Harold Levine.

On October 31, 2003, Mr. Levine pleaded guilty in the Supreme Court, Queens County, to petit larceny, a misdemeanor, in full satisfaction of all of the charges contained in four indictments against him. As part of the plea agreement, Mr. Levine agreed to make restitution in the sum of $100,000.

Mr. Levine acknowledges his inability to defend himself on the merits against any disciplinary charges which could be initiated against him by the Grievance Committee based upon the charges brought against him by the grand jury of Queens County. He avers that his resignation is freely and voluntarily tendered, that he has not been subjected to coercion or duress by anyone, and that he is fully aware of the implications of submitting his resignation.

Mr. Levine acknowledges that his resignation is subject to any application which could be made by the Grievance Committee for restitution and reimbursement to the Lawyers’ Fund for Client Protection, pursuant to Judiciary Law § 90 (6-a) (a). He further acknowledges the continuing jurisdiction of the Appellate Division, Second Department, to make such an order and he specifically waives the opportunity afforded by Judiciary Law § 90 (6-a) (f) to be heard in opposition thereto.

The Grievance Committee urges acceptance of the proffered resignation.

Inasmuch as Mr. Levine’s resignation complies with the pertinent Court rules, it is accepted, and effective immediately, Daniel H. Levine, admitted as Daniel Harold Levine, is disbarred, and his name is stricken from the roll of attorneys and counselors-at-law.
