In the Matter of Edward Horn, a disbarred

attorney.

DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION
FOR REINSTATEMENT

Motion by the respondent Edward Horn, for reinstatement as an attorney and counselor-at-law. The respondent was admitted to the Bar at a term of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the Second Judicial Department on October 13, 1976. By decision and order of this court dated January 18, 1991, he was immediately suspended from the practice of law pursuant to 22 NYCRR 691.4(1) based upon his substantial admissions under oath that he committed acts of professional misconduct and upon other uncontroverted evidence of professional misconduct. By opinion and order dated July 27, 1992, this court confirmed the report of a Special Referee sustaining seventeen charges of professional misconduct against the respondent and he was disbarred.

Upon the papers filed in support of the application and the papers filed in response thereto, it is

ORDERED that the motion is denied.

We find that the respondent does not demonstrate the requisite fitness and character to practice law.

PRUDENTI, P.J., SCHMIDT, CRANE, MASTRO and LIFSON, JJ., concur.
