[*1]In the Matter of Robert A. Kaye, an Attorney. (Attorney Registration No. 1803907)


Calendar Date:July 1, 2024
Before:Garry, P.J., Pritzker, Reynolds Fitzgerald, Ceresia and Powers, JJ.

Robert A. Kaye, Short Hills, 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.

Robert A. Kaye was admitted to practice by this Court in 1982 and lists a business address in Secaucus, New Jersey with the Office of Court Administration. Kaye 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 Kaye's application.

Upon reading Kaye's affidavit sworn to May 17, 2024 and filed May 28, 2024, and upon reading the June 25, 2024 correspondence in response by the Deputy Chief Attorney for AGC, and having determined that Kaye is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant his application and accept his resignation.

Garry, P.J., Pritzker, Reynolds Fitzgerald, Ceresia and Powers, JJ., concur.

ORDERED that Robert A. Kaye's application for permission to resign is granted and his nondisciplinary resignation is accepted; and it is further

ORDERED that Robert A. Kaye'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 Robert A. Kaye 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 Kaye 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 Robert A. Kaye shall, within 30 days of the date of this decision, surrender to the Office of Court Administration any Attorney Secure Pass issued to him.
