Attorney Is Disbarred for the Second Time
Legal Business | 2008/03/24 14:16
pA one-time law firm associate, disbarred in 1988 for insider trading, then re-admitted in 2003, has been disbarred again for misrepresenting his past in applications both for reinstatement and for non-legal licenses to work as an insurance agent and a stock broker. /ppIsrael G. Grossman committed his insider trading offenses while working as an associate at the firm now known as Kramer Levin Naftalis amp; Frankel. The confidential information he passed to friends and family about transactions the firm was working on netted them $1.5 million in trading profits. /ppArrested and convicted in 1987, the then-34-year-old Grossman was sentenced to two years in prison. He was also later found jointly and severally liable to the Securities and Exchange Commission for $2.5 million. The case attracted considerable attention at the time, coming soon after prosecutors ensnared the much larger insider trading ring led by investment banker Dennis Levine. /ppBut the Appellate Division, 1st Department, ruled last week that the now 55-year-old Grossman had consistently denied having a prior conviction on professional licensing applications to the state insurance department and the National Association of Securities Dealers. He failed to disclose these applications in his successful quest for reinstatement to the bar in 2003, even though he was facing criminal prosecution at the time for allegedly lying to the NASD about his past. /p
