[*1]In the Matter of Catherine Marie Squillace, an Attorney. (Attorney Registration No. 2220184)


Calendar Date:May 6, 2024
Before:Garry, P.J., Clark, Reynolds Fitzgerald, Fisher and Mackey, JJ.

Catherine Marie Squillace, South Glastonbury, Connecticut, pro se.

Monica A. Duffy, Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department, Albany (Alison M. Coan of counsel), for Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department.



Per Curiam.

Catherine Marie Squillace was admitted to practice by this Court in 1989 and lists a business address in Glastonbury, Connecticut with the Office of Court Administration. Squillace now seeks leave to resign from the New York bar for nondisciplinary reasons (see Rules for Atty Disciplinary Matters [22 NYCRR] § 1240.22 [a]). The Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department (hereinafter AGC) advises that it does not oppose Squillace's application.

Upon reading Squillace's affidavit sworn to March 13, 2024 and filed March 19, 2024, and upon reading the April 29, 2024 correspondence in response by the Deputy Chief Attorney for AGC, and having determined that Squillace is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant her application and accept her resignation.

Garry, P.J., Clark, Reynolds Fitzgerald, Fisher and Mackey, JJ., concur.

ORDERED that Catherine Marie Squillace's application for permission to resign is granted and her nondisciplinary resignation is accepted; and it is further

ORDERED that Catherine Marie Squillace's name is hereby stricken from the roll of attorneys and counselors-at-law of the State of New York, effective immediately, and until further order of this Court (see generally Rules for Atty Disciplinary Matters [22 NYCRR] § 1240.22 [b]); and it is further

ORDERED that Catherine Marie Squillace is commanded to desist and refrain from the practice of law in any form in the State of New York, either as principal or as agent, clerk or employee of another; and Squillace is hereby forbidden to appear as an attorney or counselor-at-law before any court, judge, justice, board, commission or other public authority, or to give to another an opinion as to the law or its application, or any advice in relation thereto, or to hold herself out in any way as an attorney and counselor-at-law in this State; and it is further

ORDERED that Catherine Marie Squillace shall, within 30 days of the date of this decision, surrender to the Office of Court Administration any Attorney Secure Pass issued to her.
