      Frank A. Finnerty, Jr., for Grievance Committee for the Tenth Judicial District.
   OPINION OF THE COURT

Per Curiam.

Pat Frank Nesci has submitted an affidavit dated September 28, 1990, wherein he tenders his resignation as an attorney and counselor-at-law (22 NYCRR 691.9). Mr. Nesci was admitted to the practice of law by the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, Second Judicial Department, on October 17, 1962.

Mr. Nesci acknowledges that he is currently the subject of an investigation by the Grievance Committee for the Tenth Judicial District concerning allegations, inter alia, that he converted $525,000 he held in an escrow account to his own use and benefit, and in a separate matter, converted $25,000 he held in an escrow account to his own use and benefit.

Mr. Nesci acknowledges that he could not successfully defend himself on the merits against charges predicated upon the misconduct outlined in his affidavit of resignation, that his resignation is freely and voluntarily rendered, that he is not being subjected to coercion or duress, and that he is fully aware of the implications of submitting his resignation.

Under the circumstances herein, the resignation of Pat Frank Nesci as a member of the Bar is accepted and directed to be filed. Accordingly, Pat Frank Nesci is disbarred and his name is stricken from the roll of attorneys and counselors-at-law, effective immediately.
