PER CURIAM — On May 31, 2018, the respondent pleaded guilty before the Honorable Peter A. Lynch, Justice of the County Court, Albany County, to Criminal Tax Fraud in the third degree, in violation of Tax Law §1804, a class D felony. The Grievance Committee for the Second, Eleventh, and Thirteenth Judicial Districts now moves to strike the respondent’s name from the roll of attorneys and counselors-at-law pursuant to Judiciary Law §90(4)(b) based upon her felony conviction. In an affirmation sworn to on October 19, 2018, the respondent admits that she entered a plea to criminal tax fraud in the third degree, in violation of Tax Law §1804, a class D felony. However, she contends that her guilty plea was entered with the understanding that should it be determined at sentencing that she has complied with certain conditions, she would be allowed to withdraw her felony plea and enter a plea of guilty to a misdemeanor violation of the Tax Law. In view thereof, she requests the Court to stay these proceedings until she has been sentenced.
