Respondent was admitted to practice by this court in 1953 and has maintained an office for the practice of law in Owego, Tioga County.
Petitioner, the Committee on Professional Standards, moves to strike respondent’s name from the roll of attorneys pursuant to Judiciary Law § 90 (4) (a) on the ground he has ceased to be an attorney by virtue of his conviction of a felony. Petitioner also moves for an order requiring respondent to make monetary restitution pursuant to Judiciary Law § 90 (6-a).
On January 10, 1992, respondent was convicted in Tioga *864County Court upon his plea of guilty to the class C felony of grand larceny in the second degree (Penal Law § 155.40 [1]). The superior court information to which respondent pleaded guilty accused him of stealing $865,549.21 from 36 named clients. The amounts taken were as large as $100,999 and as small as $1,260.67. Pursuant to Judiciary Law § 90 (4) (a), respondent ceased to be an attorney and counselor-at-law upon his conviction of said felony.
Judiciary Law §90 (6-a) authorizes this court to require respondent to make monetary restitution to the persons whose moneys he willfully misappropriated or misapplied and to require respondent to reimburse the Lawyers’ Fund for Client Protection for any awards made to such persons (see, Matter of Cooper, 168 AD2d 695).
Respondent does not oppose the order sought by petitioner and, accordingly, petitioner’s motion is granted. Respondent is disbarred and his name is stricken from the roll of attorneys and counselors-at-law, effective immediately. Pursuant to Judiciary Law §90 (6-a), respondent shall be required to make monetary restitution to the persons whose moneys he willfully misappropriated or misapplied in the amounts listed in the superior court information to which respondent pleaded guilty and shall be required to reimburse the Lawyers’ Fund for Client Protection for any awards made to such persons.
