PER CURIAM.
Robert Alexander Pilmer was admitted to practice by this Court in 2013 and lists a business address in Laguna Beach, California with the Office of Court Administration. Pilmer 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 Pilmer's application.
Upon reading Pilmer's affidavit sworn to April 28, 2022 and filed May 2, 2022, and upon reading the June 15, 2022 correspondence in response by the Chief Attorney for AGC, and having determined that Pilmer is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant his application and accept his resignation.
Lynch, J.P., Clark, Aarons, Pritzker and Fisher, JJ., concur.
