Head Matter:
In the Matter of the Application of Brooklyn Bar Association in Respect of Israel A. Needleman, an Attorney and Counselor at Law.

Opinion:
The proof in this matter compels a determination (1) that respondent obtained moneys from the city of New York by means of documents that had never been executed; (2) that a client's money had not been invested in a bond and mortgage as represented. The respondent is, therefore, disbarred and his name ordered struck from the roll of attorneys. Present — Lazansky, P. J., Young, Kapper and Hagarty, JJ.; Scudder, J., not voting.
