In the Matter of Lawrence Alan Gottfried,

a suspended attorney.

DECISION & ORDER ON MOTION
FOR REINSTATEMENT

Motion by the respondent, Lawrence Alan Gottfried, 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 June 24, 1981. By decision and order on motion of this court dated November 21, 1995, he was suspended from the practice of law for an indefinite period and until further order of this court, pursuant to 22 NYCRR 691.13(b), based on a documented medical condition that severely impaired his ability to practice law. By subsequent decision and order on motion of this court dated February 24, 2003, his application for reinstatement was denied with leave to renew upon the submission of a report from a qualified medical expert to be designated by the Chief Counsel to the Grievance Committee for the Tenth Judicial District. By decision and order on application of this court dated May 30, 2003, his application for reconsideration of a determination of this court denying his request to submit a report from his treating physician in Florida to attest to the current status of his health was denied.

Upon the report of the medical expert designated by the Chief Counsel to the Grievance Committee for the Tenth Judicial District, it is

ORDERED that the motion is granted; and it is further,

ORDERED that, effective immediately, the respondent is reinstated as an attorney and counselor-at-law and the Clerk of the court is directed to restore the name of Lawrence Alan Gottfried to the roll of attorneys and counselors-at-law.
