MEMORANDUM AND ORDER ON MOTION
Per Curiam.
Mark D. Madaio was admitted to practice by this Court in 1997 and lists a business address in Bergenfield, New Jersey with the Office of Court Administration. Madaio now seeks leave to resign from the New York bar for nondisciplinary reasons (see Rules for Atty Disciplinary Matters [ 22 NYCRR] § 1240.22 [a]). The Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department (hereinafter AGC) advises that it does not oppose Madaio's application.
Upon reading Madaio's affidavit sworn to August 24, 2023 and filed September 12, 2023 and upon reading the September 25, 2023 correspondence in response by the Deputy Chief Attorney for AGC, and having determined that Madaio is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant his application and accept his resignation.
Lynch, J.P., Clark, Reynolds Fitzgerald, Fisher and Mackey, JJ., concur.
ORDERED that Mark D. Madaio's application for permission to resign is granted and his nondisciplinary resignation is accepted; and it is further
ORDERED that Mark D. Madaio'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 Rules for Atty Disciplinary Matters [ 22 NYCRR] § 1240.22 [b]); and it is further
ORDERED that Mark D. Madaio is commanded to desist and refrain from the practice of law in any form in the State of New York, either as principal or as agent, clerk or employee of another; and Madaio is hereby forbidden to appear as an attorney or counselor-at-law before any court, judge, justice, board, commission or other public authority, or to give to another an opinion as to the law or its application, or any advice in relation thereto, or to hold himself out in any way as an attorney and counselor-at-law in this State; and it is further ORDERED that Mark D. Madaio shall, within 30 days of the date of this decision, surrender to the Office of Court Administration any Attorney Secure Pass issued to him.
