      In re Cohen (People v West),
    No. 68295.
   On order of the Court, attorney James Cohen having appeared before the Court on June 4, 1985, to show cause why he should not be held in contempt of the Court for his failure to file an application for leave to appeal as directed by the Court and his failure to respond to the order of February 5, 1985, directing him to show cause, and the Court finding that no good cause has been shown for the lack of diligence of counsel, it is hereby ordered and adjudged that attorney James Cohen is in contempt of this Court. It is further ordered that attorney James Cohen pay to the Clerk of this Court the sum of $500 in court costs, payable to the State of Michigan, within ten days of the Clerk’s certification of this order. These costs are assessed because of the needless additional work required of this Court by the failure of Mr. Cohen to file an application or take other action within a reasonable time after his appointment. The Court finds that defendant’s appeal to this Court has been unreasonably delayed through the inaction of attorney James Cohen. The Clerk shall deposit the costs paid pursuant to this order with the State Treasurer for credit to the State General Fund. The costs are personal to the attorney and may not be charged back to the county.

Williams, C.J., and Brickley and Cavanagh, JJ.,

concur in the Court’s order but would, in light of the attorney’s conduct in this case and on prior occasions with respect to Court of Appeals filings, further order that attorney James Cohen not enter any new appearance in an appellate matter, including an assigned criminal appeal, for a period of one year from and after the date of certification of the Court’s order.
