Respondent was admitted to practice by this Court in 1984 and maintained a law office in New Jersey, where she was also admitted to practice in 1984. In June 1999, we reciprocally suspended respondent from practice for a period of three months based upon her suspension, in New Jersey (see, 262 AD2d 865). Respondent has not been reinstated in New Jersey or this State.
*813Effective July 13, 2000, the Supreme Court of New Jersey suspended respondent from practice for a period of six additional months for gross neglect of a client’s case, lack of diligence, failure to communicate with the client, and failure to cooperate with the New Jersey ethics authorities. We now grant petitioner’s motion to further reciprocally suspend respondent pursuant to this Court’s rules (see, 22 NYCRR 806.19) and determine that respondent should be suspended in this State for six additional months, effective immediately. Respondent has not replied or otherwise appeared in response to the motion.
