Bronx attorney Henry Banji was disbarred on Thursday by a unanimous Appellate Division, First Department panel for failing to cooperate with a disciplinary investigation into a complaint that he neglected a client.
The Departmental Disciplinary Committee began investigating Banji after a client complained that he failed to file an appellate brief, resulting in the client’s appeal being dismissed. A First Department panel suspended him in April 2013, noting that he could not be found and had not responded to numerous attempts to contact him.
