Per Curiam.
Ananda Bikash Roy was admitted to practice by this Court in 2008 and lists a business address in Angier, North Carolina with the Office of Court Administration. Roy 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 Roy's application.
Upon reading Roy's affidavit sworn to December 12, 2025 and filed December 19, 2025, and upon reading the February 26, 2026 correspondence in response by the Deputy Chief Attorney for AGC, and having determined that Roy is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant his application and accept his resignation.
Clark, J.P., Ceresia, Fisher, Powers and Corcoran, JJ., concur.
