Respondent was admitted to practice *708by this Court in 1981 and practiced law in Broome County. He currently resides in Florida.
In March 1999, respondent pleaded guilty to three counts of offering a false instrument for filing in the second degree, a class A misdemeanor (Penal Law § 175.30), in full satisfaction of a six-count felony indictment. During his plea colloquy, he admitted to submitting several false Law Guardian vouchers to the Broome County Family Court which resulted in the overbilling of several hours of in-court time. The plea agreement included, inter alia, a provision requiring respondent to submit his resignation from the New York Bar.
After petitioner, the Committee on Professional Standards, moved to suspend him from practice pursuant to Judiciary Law § 90 (4) (f) on the ground he had been convicted of a serious crime, respondent submitted his resignation in compliance with this Court’s rule specifying the content thereof (see, 22 NYCRR 806.8). Petitioner does not oppose the resignation and withdraws its suspension motion.
We accept the resignation and disbar respondent as required by the rule (22 NYCRR 806.8 [b]).
