OPINION OF THE COURT
Per Curiam.
By order of this court dated March 30, 1990, the respondent was suspended from the practice of law until further order of this court. On June 6, 1990, the respondent was convicted in the County Court, Westchester County, upon his plea of guilty, of the crime of grand larceny in the second degree in violation of Penal Law § 155.40 (1), which constitutes a class C felony. On November 23, 1990, the respondent was sentenced to an indeterminate term of 1 to 3 years' imprisonment and was directed to make restitution.
Pursuant to Judiciary Law § 90 (4), the respondent ceased to be an attorney and counselor-at-law upon his conviction of a felony.
Accordingly, the petitioner's motion is granted. The respondent is disbarred and his name is stricken from the roll of attorneys and counselors-at-law, effective immediately.
