    In the Matter of Eric P. Von Wiegen, a Disbarred Attorney, Respondent. Committee on Professional Standards, Petitioner.
    [746 NYS2d 847]
   —Per Curiam.

Because we conclude that respondent has not shown by clear and convincing evidence that he possesses the character and general fitness to resume the practice of law {see 22 NYCRR 806.12 [b]), we deny the application for reinstatement.

Mercure, J.P., Crew III, Peters, Spain and Carpinello, JJ., concur. Ordered that respondent’s application for reinstatement is denied.
