Marc C. Panepinto is an American attorney and Democratic politician from New York State.

Panepinto graduated from The University at Buffalo School of Law.[1] He is a founding partner at the Buffalo law firm of Dolce Panepinto.[2] Panepinto was convicted of misdemeanor election law violations in 2001.[3]

Panepinto ran for the New York State Senate in the 60th district in the 2014 elections.[4] He won the election, receiving 34% of the vote; Republican Party nominee Kevin Stocker finished with 30%, Independence Party nominee Mark Grisanti (the incumbent) received 28%, and Conservative Party nominee Timothy Gallagher (adummy candidate who did not campaign) received 8%.[5][6]

Panepinto did not seek re-election in 2016.[7] Following Panepinto's announcement that he would not seek re-election, the Erie County District Attorney's Office opened an investigation into claims of an underage drinking party at Panepinto's home.[8]

On June 28, 2018, Panepinto pleaded guilty to federal corruption charges arising out of an attempted cover-up of unwanted sexual advances he made to a member of his Senate staff in January 2016.[9] On December 14, 2018, Panepinto was sentenced to two months in prison.[10] In December 2020, Panepinto's law license was suspended for one year.[11] Panepinto was reinstated to the practice of law in January 2022.[12]
