This matter is before the Court on respondent's Petition for Leave to Resign Permanently Without Leave to Reapply, pursuant to article XI, Rule 11.08 of the Integration Rule of The Florida Bar.

The Florida Bar filed its response supporting the Petition and stating:

The Court having reviewed the Petition for Leave to Resign and the response of The Florida Bar and determined that the requirements of Rule 11.08(3) are fully satisfied, the Petition for Leave to Resign Permanently Without Leave to Reapply is hereby approved, effective immediately.

Costs in the amount of $184.40 are hereby taxed against respondent.

It is so ordered.
