New York court officially disbars Michael Cohen

Michael Cohen officially can’t practice law anymore.
The New York State Supreme Court in Manhattan disbarred the prison-bound former personal attorney to President Trump on Tuesday.
“(Cohen) ceased to be an attorney upon his federal conviction of making false statements to the United States Congress,” a five-judge panel on the court wrote in a disbarment decision, referencing his pleading guilty last year to lying to lawmakers about a scuttled Trump Tower development in Moscow.
The eight-page decision came in as Cohen was in Washington, D.C., testifying behind closed doors before the Senate Intelligence Committee.
A spokeswoman for Cohen did not immediately return a request for comment.
