    In the Matter of John Joseph Scura, an Attorney.
    [54 NYS3d 465]
   Per Curiam.

John Joseph Scura was admitted to practice by this Court in 1990 and lists a business address in Wayne, New Jersey with the Office of Court Administration. Scura 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 advises that it does not oppose Scura’s application.

Upon reading the affidavit of Scura sworn to November 28, 2016, and upon reading the correspondence in response by the Chief Attorney for the Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department, and having determined that Scura is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant his application and accept his resignation.

Garry, J.P., Lynch, Rose, Devine and Mulvey, JJ., concur.

Ordered that John Joseph Scura’s application for permission to resign is granted and his nondisciplinary resignation is accepted; and it is further ordered that John Joseph Scura’s 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 Attorney Disciplinary Matters [22 NYCRR] § 1240.22 [b]); and it is further ordered that, effective immediately, John Joseph Scura 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 Scura 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 ordered that John Joseph Scura shall, within 30 days of the date of this decision, surrender to the Office of Court Administration any Attorney Secure Pass issued to him.
