Lippman's court system stalls announcing automatic disbarment of Sheldon Silver and Dean Skelos

Under New York Judiciary Law 90(4) a lawyer licensed in New York and convicted of a felony, is automatically disbarred, by operation of law, as of the date of conviction, and an additional disbarment proceeding or order are not needed.

NYS Assembly Speaker (now former) and attorney Sheldon Silver (a close friend since childhood of New York Chief Judge Jonathan Lippman) was convicted of a felony involving fraud and corruption on November 30, 2015.

NYS Majority Leader (now former) and attorney Dean Skelos was convicted of a felony involving fraud and corruption on December 11, 2015.

As of today, New York State Unified Court system headed by Silver's buddy Jonathan Lippman, lists both Skelos and Silver as licensed attorneys with "no record of public discipline" - a slap in the face to all New Yorkers.






I urge my readers to write to New York State Office of Court Administration, as I will do myself, to demand immediate correction of the record for Dean Skelos and Sheldon Silver and reflect their automatic disbarments as of the dates of their convictions.
