IN RE: Jamie BURKE (2023)

OPINION & ORDER

On February 2, 2023, the respondent pleaded guilty before the Honorable Jerry M. Iannece, Justice of the Supreme Court, Queens County, to the crime of grand larceny in the third degree, a class D felony, in violation of Penal Law § 155.35(1), and petit larceny, a class A misdemeanor, in violation of Penal Law § 155.25(1).

The Grievance Committee for the Second, Eleventh, and Thirteenth Judicial Districts now moves to strike the respondent's name from the roll of attorneys and counselors-at-law, pursuant to Judiciary Law § 90(4)(b), based upon her felony conviction.  Although the respondent was duly served, she has neither opposed the motion nor interposed any response thereto.

Pursuant to Judiciary Law § 90(4)(a), the respondent was automatically disbarred and ceased to be an attorney upon her conviction of a felony.

Accordingly, the motion to strike the respondent's name from the roll of attorneys and counselors-at-law, pursuant to Judiciary Law § 90(4)(b), is granted to reflect the respondent's automatic disbarment as of February 2, 2023.

ORDERED that the motion of the Grievance Committee for the Second, Eleventh, and Thirteenth Judicial Districts to strike the name of the respondent, Jamie Burke, admitted as Jamie Moore, from the roll of attorneys and counselors at law, pursuant to Judiciary Law § 90(4)(b), is granted;  and it is further,

ORDERED that pursuant to Judiciary Law § 90(4)(a), the respondent, Jamie Burke, admitted as Jamie Moore, is disbarred, effective February 2, 2023, and her name is stricken from the roll of attorneys and counselors-at-law, pursuant to Judiciary Law § 90(4)(b);  and it is further,

ORDERED that the respondent, Jamie Burke, admitted as Jamie Moore, shall comply with the rules governing the conduct of disbarred or suspended attorneys (see 22 NYCRR 1240.15);  and it is further,

ORDERED that pursuant to Judiciary Law § 90, the respondent, Jamie Burke, admitted as Jamie Moore, is commanded to desist and refrain from (1) practicing law in any form, either as principal or as agent, clerk, or employee of another, (2) appearing as an attorney or counselor-at-law before any court, Judge, Justice, board, commission, or other public authority, (3) giving to another an opinion as to the law or its application or any advice in relation thereto, and (4) holding herself out in any way as an attorney and counselor-at-law;  and it is further,

ORDERED that if the respondent, Jamie Burke, admitted as Jamie Moore, has been issued a secure pass by the Office of Court Administration, it shall be returned forthwith to the issuing agency, and the respondent shall certify to the same in her affidavit of compliance pursuant to 22 NYCRR 1240.15(f).

PER CURIAM.
