PER CURIAM.Dorothy Heisner Bjorck was admitted to practice by this Court in 1998 and lists a business address in Dallas, Texas with the Office of Court Administration. Bjorck now seeks leave to resign from the New York bar for nondisciplinary reasons (see Uniform Rules for Attorney Disciplinary Matters [22 NYCRR] § 1240.22 [a] ). The Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department advises that it does not oppose Bjorck's application.
Upon reading the affidavit of Bjorck sworn to August 15, 2016, and upon reading the correspondence in response by the Chief Attorney for the Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department, and having determined that Bjorck is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant her application and accept her resignation.
ORDERED that Dorothy Heisner Bjorck's application to resign is granted and her nondisciplinary resignation is accepted; and it is further
ORDERED that Dorothy Heisner Bjorck's name is hereby stricken from the roll of attorneys and counselors-at-law of the State of New York, effective immediately, and until further order of this Court (see generally Uniform Rules for Attorney Disciplinary Matters [22 NYCRR] § 1240.22 [b] ); and it is further
ORDERED that Dorothy Heisner Bjorck shall, within 30 days of the date of this decision, surrender to the Office of Court Administration any Attorney Secure Pass issued to her.
