Barbara Petchenik Berman, Boynton Beach, Florida, 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. Barbara Petchenik Berman was admitted to practice by this Court in 1989 and lists a business address in Boynton Beach, Florida with the Office of Court Administration. Berman 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 Berman's application.

Upon reading Berman's affidavit sworn to March 21, 2025, and filed March 26, 2025, and upon reading the June 3, 2025 correspondence in response by the Deputy Chief Attorney for AGC, and having determined that Berman is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant her application and accept her resignation.
