Head Matter:
In the Matter of the Application of the Brooklyn Bar Association to Discipline an Attorney. Robert S. DuBois, Respondent.

Opinion:
Report of official referee confirmed. The referee has reported that justice will be done in this matter by a reprimand, to be administered to the respondent. In that recommendation the grievance committee of the Bar Association concurs. This court, therefore, reprimands the respondent for violating the statute which prohibits the division of fees between an attorney and a layman in consideration of the layman's obtaining law business for the attorney. Present — Kelly, P. J., Manning, Young, Kapper and Lazansky, JJ.
