MARTIN S. WEINBERG
RESPONDENT
2
UNDER TERMS OF PERMANENT DISBARMENT
Martin S. Weinberg, whose last known address is 5011 Cliffwood Road,
Louisville, KY 40222, has moved to resign from the Kentucky Bar Association under
terms of permanent disbarment. Weinberg previously moved this Court to enter an
order allowing him to resign under terms of disbarment subject to the condition that he
would be able to seek reinstatement after the expiration of five years. The KBA
objected to said motion because Respondent did not offer to resign under terms of
permanent disbarment. This Court, having been advised of Weinberg’s felony
conviction as defined in KRS 500.080, denied the motion, suspended Movant, and
directed that disciplinary proceedings against him would continue. Weinberg has now
agreed to resign under terms of permanent disbarment. The Court being fully advised,
hereby grants his motion and orders that Weinberg be disbarred without the possibility
of reinstatement, pursuant to SCR 3.480. We also reiterate Respondent’s duty to notify

all clients of his disbarment in accordance with SCR 3.390. Further, Weinberg is
ordered to pay the costs of this proceeding in the amount of $479.88, for which
execution may issue upon finality of this order.
All concur.

ORDER DENYING MOTION TO RESIGN
AND ORDERING SUSPENSION
Martin S. Weinberg, whose last known address is 5011 Cliffwood Road,
Louisville, KY 40222, has moved to resign from the Kentucky Bar Association and the
Kentucky Bar Association has objected thereto because Movant has not offered to
resign under terms of permanent disbarment. The Court being fully advised, hereby
denies said motion and directs that disciplinary proceedings continue in accordance
with SCR 3.480.
Further, the Court, having been advised that Weinberg has been
convicted of a felony as defined in KRS 500.080, by way of guilty plea entered on
March 28, 2001, hereby suspends Martin S. Weinberg from the practice of law pursuant
to SCR 3.166. If he has not already done so, Weinberg is hereby ordered to notify all
clients in writing of the attorney’s inability to continue to represent them and shall
furnish copies of all such letters to the Director. He shall further make arrangements to
return all unearned attorney fees and client property to the client and shall advise the
Director of such arrangements if he has not yet done so as required by SCR 3.166(4).
Weinberg is further hereby immediately ordered, to the extent possible, to cancel and
cease any advertising activities in which the attorney is engaged.
All concur.
