Head Matter:
In the Matter of the Application of Benjamin R. Tarsey, for Reinstatement as a Member of the Bar.

Opinion:
—While the excellent reputation of the petitioner, gained since his conviction, has justified the court's clemency in suspending sentence, the motion is denied. The argument that because no sentence was imposed there was no conviction, does not apply to the provisions of section 88 of the Judiciary Law. (Matter of Lewis v. Carter, 220 N. Y. 8, 17.) Present — Jenks, P. J., Thomas, Putnam and Blackmar, JJ.
