      APPEARANCES OF COUNSEL
    
      Robert H. Straus for petitioner.
    
      Sharon Lynch-Taureck, respondent pro se.
    
   OPINION OF THE COURT

Per Curiam.

The respondent has submitted an affidavit dated May 9, 1990, wherein she tenders her resignation as an attorney and counselor-at-law (22 NYCRR 691.9).

The respondent acknowledges in her affidavit that she has been charged, inter alia, with three separate allegations of converting clients’ moneys totaling more than $38,000, commingling clients’ funds with personal funds, failing to maintain records of clients’ funds entrusted to her, failing to comply with the lawful demands of the Grievance Committee, failing to submit an affidavit of compliance with this court’s order of suspension, and failing to communicate with clients.

The respondent has indicated that she could not successfully defend herself on the merits against the charges outlined above, that her resignation is freely and voluntarily tendered, that she has not been subjected to coercion or duress, and that she is fully aware of the implications of submitting her resignation.

Under the circumstances herein, the resignation of the respondent as a member of the Bar is accepted and directed to be filed. The respondent is disbarred and it is directed that her name be stricken from the roll of attorneys and counselors-at-law, effective forthwith.
