Hart v. Fischer

60 A.D.3d 1226, 874 N.Y.S.2d 396

Opinion

Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 (transferred to this Court by order of the Supreme Court, entered in Albany County) to review a determination of respondent which found petitioner guilty of violating a prison disciplinary rule.

Petitioner, a prison inmate, commenced this proceeding challenging a tier III disciplinary determination finding him guilty of possessing a weapon. The Attorney General has advised this Court that the administrative determination has been reversed and all references thereto have been expunged from petitioner’s institutional record. Accordingly, petitioner has received all the relief to which he is entitled and this matter is dismissed as moot (see Matter of York v Fischer, 55 AD3d 1096 [2008]; Matter of Rivera v Brown, 54 AD3d 1089 [2008]).

Cardona, P.J., Peters, Lahtinen, Malone Jr. and Stein, JJ., concur. Adjudged that the petition is dismissed, as moot, without costs.
