Shu-Fan Chou is suspended, delinquent on the New York attorney register file of Sep 29, 2026. Admitted in 2016 in the Third Department, with an office in HCMC, Vietnam; next registration due Jul 2026. The Aug 6, 2026 file listed this registration as delinquent.

What this status means on the register

On the register, “Suspended, delinquent” means the attorney is recorded as suspended from practice, with the registration also delinquent. The register does not give the reason or date of a suspension; the Appellate Division’s order does.

How to confirm it officially

For a statement of Shu-Fan Chou’s standing, contact the Attorney Registration Unit of the NY Office of Court Administration (nycourts.gov/attorneys), or ask the Appellate Division, Third Department, which admitted Shu-Fan Chou in 2016. The register places the office outside New York, so a complaint would go to that department’s grievance committee (22 NYCRR 1240.7(a)(2)).

This page reads the register file of Sep 29, 2026, and the court system’s own search can be newer; the register shows only the current value, so a suspension that ended before the files we hold, or a censure, leaves no trace here (Appellate Division decisions are published through the court system’s Law Reporting Bureau).
