| In the Matter of Jonathan Andrew David, an Attorney. (Attorney Registration No. 2923977.) |
Jonathan Andrew David, Chester, New Jersey, pro se.
Monica A. Duffy, Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department, Albany, for Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department.
Per Curiam. Jonathan Andrew David was admitted to practice by this Court in 1998 and lists a business address in Cranford, New Jersey with the Office of Court Administration. David 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 opposes David's application based on an omission made within same.
Upon reading David's affidavit sworn to June 19, 2023, and filed June 23, 2023, the September 6, 2023 correspondence in response by the Chief Attorney for AGC and the September 7, 2023 supplemental filing by David which cured the omission within his application, and having determined that David is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant his application and accept his resignation.
Egan Jr., J.P., Clark, Pritzker, Ceresia and McShan, JJ., concur. Ordered that Jonathan Andrew David's application for permission to resign is granted and his nondisciplinary resignation is accepted; and it is further ordered that Jonathan Andrew David'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 Atty Disciplinary Matters [22 NYCRR] § 1240.22 [b]); and it is further ordered that Jonathan Andrew David 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 David 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 Jonathan Andrew David shall, within 30 days of the date of this decision, surrender to the Office of Court Administration any Attorney Secure Pass issued to him.
