OPINION OF THE COURT
Per Curiam.The respondent was admitted to practice as an attorney by this court on June 15, 1966.
*5By order of this court dated October 16, 1989, the respondent was suspended from the practice of law in the State of New York based upon a temporary suspension imposed upon the respondent by order of the Supreme Court of Tennessee dated February 9,1989.
By order of the Supreme Court of Tennessee dated July 17, 1989, the respondent was disbarred in the State of Tennessee.
22 NYCRR 691.3 (c) provides that an attorney can be disciplined in the State of New York based upon discipline imposed in another jurisdiction and that the attorney may impose any of three enumerated defenses to the imposition of discipline in the State of New York. The defenses are as follows: "(1) that the procedure in the foreign jurisdiction was so lacking in notice or opportunity to be heard as to constitute a deprivation of due process; or (2) that there was such an infirmity of proof establishing the misconduct as to give rise to the clear conviction that this court could not, consistent with its duties, accept as final the finding of the court in the foreign jurisdiction as to the attorney’s misconduct; or (3) that the imposition of discipline by this court would be unjust.”
The respondent, having been notified that he had a right to demand a hearing at which consideration would be given to any or all of these defenses, failed to oppose this motion to discipline. Accordingly, the petitioner’s motion is granted and the respondent is disbarred in the State of New York, effective forthwith.
