PER CURIAM.
Leslee Wilkins Miraldi was admitted to practice by this Court in 2006 and lists a business address in Cleveland, Ohio with the Office of Court Administration. Miraldi 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 Miraldi's application.
Upon reading Miraldi's affidavit sworn to September 13, 2024 and filed September 20, 2024, and upon reading the October 29, 2024 correspondence in response by the Deputy Chief Attorney for AGC, and having determined that Miraldi is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant her application and accept her resignation.
Garry, P.J., Egan Jr., Clark, Aarons and McShan, JJ., concur.
