[*1]In the Matter of Andrea Renee Hunt, an Attorney. (Attorney Registration No. 4818506.)

Calendar Date: December 14, 2020
Before: Garry, P.J., Clark, Aarons, Pritzker and Colangelo, JJ.

Andrea Renee Hunt, Louisville, Kentucky, 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.

Andrea Renee Hunt was admitted to practice by this Court in 2010 and lists a business address in Louisville, Kentucky with the Office of Court Administration. Hunt now seeks leave to resign from the New York bar for nondisciplinary reasons (see Rules for Attorney Disciplinary Matters [22 NYCRR] § 1240.22 [a]). The Attorney Grievance Committee for the Third Judicial Department (hereinafter AGC) advises that it does not oppose Hunt's application.

Upon reading Hunt's affidavit sworn to August 31, 2020 and filed October 1, 2020, and upon reading the December 7, 2020 correspondence in response by the Chief Attorney for AGC, and having determined that Hunt is eligible to resign for nondisciplinary reasons, we grant her application and accept her resignation.

Garry, P.J., Clark, Aarons, Pritzker and Colangelo, JJ., concur.

ORDERED that Andrea Renee Hunt's application for permission to resign is granted and her nondisciplinary resignation is accepted; and it is further

ORDERED that Andrea Renee Hunt'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 Attorney Disciplinary Matters [22 NYCRR] § 1240.22 [b]); and it is further

ORDERED that Andrea Renee Hunt 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 Hunt 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 herself out in any way as an attorney and counselor-at-law in this State; and it is further

ORDERED that Andrea Renee Hunt shall, within 30 days of the date of this decision, surrender to the Office of Court Administration any Attorney Secure Pass issued to her.
