    In the Matter of Timothy Sullivan Wachter, an Attorney.
    [57 NYS3d 441]
   Per Curiam.

Timothy Sullivan Wachter was admitted to practice by this Court in 2015 and lists a business address in Erie, Pennsylvania with the Office of Court Administration. By affidavit sworn to June 20, 2017 and filed June 30, 2017, Wachter now seeks leave to resign from the New York bar for nondisciplinary reasons (see Rules for Attorney Disciplinary Matters [22 NYCRR] § 1240.22 [a]). By correspondence dated August 2, 2017, the Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department (hereinafter AGC) advises that it does not oppose Wachter’s application.

Upon reading the affidavit of Wachter, and upon reading the correspondence in response by the Chief Attorney for AGC, and having determined that Wachter is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant his application and accept his resignation.

Peters, P.J., McCarthy, Devine, Clark and Mulvey, JJ., concur.
