Thomas Aquinas Culhane is delinquent on the New York attorney register file of Sep 29, 2026. Admitted in 1983 in the Second Department, with an office in White Plains, NY; next registration due Sep 2027. Since Jul 3, 2026 it has moved only through the routine two-year cycle. The month shown is the next cycle’s; the delinquency concerns an earlier registration the register did not receive.

What this status means on the register

On the register, “Delinquent” means the attorney has a registration the register shows as due and not received. Under the rule a failure to register results in referral to the Appellate Division for disciplinary action; the register does not show whether a given attorney was referred.

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).
