Harry Post Meislahn, Charlottesville, Virginia, pro se.

Monica A. Duffy, Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department, Albany (Alison M. Coan of counsel), for Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department.

Before: Gariy, P.J., Clark, Reynolds Fitzgerald, Fisher and Mackey, JJ.

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER ON MOTION

Per Curiam.

Hany Post Meislahn was admitted to practice by this Court in 1966 and lists a business address in Charlottesville, Virginia with the Office of Court Administration. Meislahn 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 Meislahn’s application.

Upon reading Meislahn’s affidavit sworn to March 15, 2024 and filed March 22, 2024, and upon reading the April 29, 2024 correspondence in response by the Deputy Chief Attorney for AGC, and having determined that Meislahn is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant his application and accept his resignation.

Garry, P.J., Clark, Reynolds Fitzgerald, Fisher and Mackey, JJ., concur.

ORDERED that Harry Post Meislahn’s application for permission to resign is granted and his nondisciplinary resignation is accepted; and it is further

ORDERED that Harry Post Meislahn’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 Harry Post Meislahn 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 Meislahn 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 Harry Post Meislahn shall, within 30 days of the date of this decision, surrender to the Office of Court Administration any Attorney Secure Pass issued to him.
