By opinion and order of this Court dated March 8, 1993, Mr. Jacobs was suspended from the practice of law for a period of three years based on five charges of professional misconduct (Matter of Jacobs, 188 AD2d 228). Reargument of the opinion and order dated March 8, 1993, was denied by decision and order on motion of this Court dated May 17, 1993.
