[EDITOR’S NOTE: This case is unpublished as indicated by the issuing court.]

BEFORE: Sentelle, Chief Judge, and Ginsburg and Tatel, Circuit Judges.

Per Curiam
ORDER OF DISBARMNT
Upon consideration of the Report and Recommendation of the Committee on Admissions and Grievances, filed June 25, 2008; the court’s order filed June 27, 2008, that respondent show cause why the court should not adopt the Committee’s Report and Recommendation, that was resent by order filed July 17, 2008, after both the first class and certified mail were returned marked “Not deliverable as addressed,” and the court received communication that Dana Pirone Garrity of the firm Stevens and Lee in Philadelphia, PA, would accept the court’s order for respondent (but would not represent pro se respondent); the return receipt signed July 21, 2008; and the lack of any response by respondent to the order to show cause, it is

ORDERED that the order to show cause be discharged. It is

FURTHER ORDERED that David F. Luvara be disbarred and, accordingly, be prohibited from the practice of law before the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. Because respondent resigned by consent from the bar of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court while an investigation into allegations of misconduct were pending, under this court’s Rules of Disciplinary Enforcement, disbarment is automatic. See
D.C. Cir. Rules, App. II, Rule V. It is

FURTHER ORDERED that David F. Luvara be prohibited from holding himself out to be an attorney at law licensed to practice before the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.

Pursuant to D.C. Circuit Rule 36, this disposition will not be published.
