Kenneth J. Mayers, Roseland, New Jersey, 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.
Per Curiam.
Kenneth J. Mayers was admitted to practice by this Court in 1984 and lists a business address in Clifton, New Jersey with the Office of Court Administration. Mayers 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 Mayers' application.
Upon reading Mayers' affidavit sworn to October 29, 2024 and filed November 1, 2024, and upon reading the December 13, 2024 correspondence in response by the Deputy Chief Attorney for AGC, and having determined that Mayers is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant his application and accept his resignation.
Garry, P.J., Egan Jr., Aarons, Pritzker and Powers, JJ., concur.
ORDERED that Kenneth J. Mayers' application for permission to resign is granted and his nondisciplinary resignation is accepted; and it is further
ORDERED that Kenneth J. Mayers' 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 Kenneth J. Mayers 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 Mayers 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
