A veteran personal injury attorney has been suspended from practicing law for two years after getting suspended in 2017 as part of a mass suspension of lawyers who failed to file registration statements and pay biennial registration fees, and then practicing law part-time anyway.
Robert F. Garnsey, who was admitted to the state bar in 1994, orally argued before the Appellate Division, Second Department in both 2018 and 2019, and worked on 13 other litigation matters, after he was made part of the mass suspension of lawyers, wrote the Appellate Division, First Department in an opinion suspending him, non pro tunc, or retroactively, to March 15, 2019.
