Hopeful they get disbarred.
"Suspended (hereafter, lawyers suspended for longer than six months) or disbarred lawyers have a much higher mountain to climb. By statute, disbarred lawyers may not apply for reinstatement for seven years following the effective date of the order of disbarment.3 But whether suspended or disbarred, the lawyer seeking reinstatement must, in the first instance, petition the Appellate Division setting forth in substantial detail, in an accompanying affidavit, information sufficient for the court, and its delegated fact-finding committee, to evaluate whether the applicant has fully complied with the original order of suspension or disbarment, and now has the requisite character and fitness to rejoin the bar.4 All applicants have the burden of proof by clear and convincing evidence. They must also take and pass the Multi-State Professional Responsibility Exam (MPRE) within reasonable proximity to the filing of a petition for reinstatement.
Among the most important factors that the courts consider are the applicant’s: candor; acknowledgment of wrongdoing and expression of remorse; complete and unqualified compliance with the order of suspension or disbarment; gainful employment; evidence of financial responsibility; absence of arrests, convictions, or unpaid judgments; lawsuits; bankruptcies; any treatment for alcohol or drug abuse; compliance with the tax laws; and, restitution where applicable."
