Motion by Sheldon M. Krupnick for reinstatement to the Bar as an attorney and counselor-at-law. Mr. Krupnick was admitted to the Bar at a term of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the Second Judicial Department on October 13, 1965, under the name Sheldon Martin Krupnick.

Mulholland, Esq., as Special Referee, to hear and report. By opinion and order of this Court dated June 30, 2009, Mr. Krupnick was suspended from the practice of law for a period of five years based on four charges of professional misconduct. By decision and order on motion of this Court dated July 6, 2015, Mr. Krupnick's motion for reinstatement was held in abeyance and the matter was referred to the Committee on Character and Fitness to investigate and report on his character and general fitness to practice law.

Upon the papers filed in support of the motion and the papers filed in relation thereto, and upon the report of the Committee on Character and Fitness and the exhibits annexed thereto, it is
