Jonathan Steven Resnick has been disbarred from practicing law in Maryland, effective immediately, as a result of a Joint Petition for Disbarment by Consent filed by the Attorney Grievance Commission of Maryland. The disbarment stems from violations of several Maryland Rules, specifically: 19-301.15 (safekeeping property), 19-308.1 (bar admission and disciplinary matters), 19-308.4 (misconduct), 19-407 (attorney trust account record-keeping), and 19-410 (prohibited transactions). 

The Court of Appeals of Maryland ordered that Resnick's name be removed from the register of attorneys and that this removal be certified to the Trustees of the Client Protection Fund of the Bar of Maryland, as well as to the Clerks of all judicial tribunals in the state. Additionally, a judgment was entered in favor of the Attorney Grievance Commission against Resnick for $2,149.31. The Court's previous transmittal order regarding charges against Louis J. Glick remains in effect.
