On Report and Recommendation of the Board on Professional Responsibility

Submitted March 5, 2002

On November 13, 2000, the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Appellate Division, Fourth Judicial Department (“the New York Court”), suspended respondent Domenic Alongi from the practice of law in New York for one year and until further order of that court. See In re Alongi, 716 N.Y.S.2d 491 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000). Additionally, as a condition of reinstatement, respondent is required to demonstrate that he “possesses the requisite mental capacity to resume the practice of law.” Id. The New York Court imposed this sanction after concluding that respondent violated six disciplinary rules in his representation of two related clients. *fn1 Specifically, the court found that respondent “made misrepresentations to a client regarding the status of a lawsuit and prepared documents and advanced funds in furtherance of the misrepresentations; that he engaged in a sexual relationship with the client during the course of the attorney-client relationship; that he prepared a will for the client designating himself as executor and guardian of the property of the client’s infant son without making required disclosures regarding the potential conflict of interest; and that he neglected another client’s criminal matter.”
