[*1]In the Matter of Matthew Edward Krichbaum, an Attorney. (Attorney Registration No. 4716460.)

Calendar Date:September 11, 2023

Before:Garry, P.J., Lynch, Clark, Ceresia and McShan, JJ. 

Matthew Edward Krichbaum, Ann Arbor, Michigan, 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.
Matthew Edward Krichbaum was admitted to practice by this Court in 2009 and lists a business address in Ann Arbor, Michigan with the Office of Court Administration. Krichbaum 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 Krichbaum's application.
Upon reading Krichbaum's affidavit sworn to June 1, 2023 and filed June 8, 2023, and upon reading the September 6, 2023 correspondence in response by the Chief Attorney for AGC, and having determined that Krichbaum is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant his application and accept his resignation.
Garry, P.J., Lynch, Clark, Ceresia and McShan, JJ., concur.
ORDERED that Matthew Edward Krichbaum's application for permission to resign is granted and his nondisciplinary resignation is accepted; and it is further
ORDERED that Matthew Edward Krichbaum'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 Matthew Edward Krichbaum 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 Krichbaum 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 Matthew Edward Krichbaum shall, within 30 days of the date of this decision, surrender to the Office of Court Administration any Attorney Secure Pass issued to him.
