from www.nydailynews.com – First he lost his midtown jiggle joint. Now he’s lost his bid to remain listed as a lawyer.

Shady lawyer Lou Posner, who pleaded guilty in March to selling sex out of his members-only lap dance club in Manhattan, Thursday was stricken from the state’s roll of lawyers by a state appeals court.

The roly-poly pimp was automatically disbarred after pleading guilty in March to a felony charge of running a hooker ring out of the now-shuttered Hot Lap Dance Club on West 38th Street. But Posner was challenging a push by the committee that disciplines lawyers to have him removed from the roll of lawyers.

Posner’s claims were “unavailing,” a panel of judges determined.

The notorious no-holds-barred strip club was shuttered in July 2008, following a raid that came months after a member sued the club when he took a stripper’s heel to the eye during a bump-and-grind gone bad.

Posner, who was listed on a club website as “Lap Dance Lou,” was sentenced to five years probation and ordered to perform 60 hours of community service as part of his guilty plea. He was also ordered to steer clear of skin joints for five years and had to fork over a fine of $300 – or enough to bankroll 15 lap dances at his old club.

As part of the deal, Posner also admitted to lying that NYPD members tried to shake him down as the club got busted. But charges against his wife were dropped.

More than 20 people, including porn star Alexia Moore [pictured with Posner], were busted in the raid on the Hot Lap Dance Club, which prosecutors said raked in more than $1 million a year.

Moore, whose real name is Cassandra Malandri, was acquitted of prostitution charges in January.
