MEMORANDUM AND ORDER ON MOTION
Per Curiam. Zachary Alan Dietert was admitted to practice by this Court in 2011. Dietert now seeks leave to resign from the New York bar for nondisciplinary reasons (see Rules for Attorney Disciplinary Matters [ 22 NYCRR] § 1240.22 [a]). The Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department (hereinafter AGC) advises that it does not oppose Dietert's application.
Upon reading Dietert's affidavit sworn to November 30, 2021 and filed December 7, 2021, and upon reading the February 3, 2022 correspondence in response by the Chief Attorney for AGC, and having determined that Dietert is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant his application and accept his resignation.
Garry, P.J., Clark, Reynolds Fitzgerald, Colangelo and Ceresia, JJ., concur.
