Matter of Colon v. Lee

2017 NY Slip Op 6687, 153 A.D.3d 1532, 60 N.Y.S.3d 699

Opinion

Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 (transferred to this Court by order of the Supreme Court, entered in Ulster County) to review a determination of respondent Superintendent of Eastern N.Y. Correctional Facility finding petitioner guilty of violating certain prison disciplinary rules.

Petitioner commenced this CPLR article 78 proceeding challenging a tier II determination finding him guilty of violating certain prison disciplinary rules. The Attorney General has advised this Court that the determination has since been administratively reversed, all references thereto have been expunged from petitioner’s institutional record and the mandatory $5 surcharge has been refunded to petitioner’s inmate account. In view of this, and given that petitioner has been granted all the relief to which he is entitled, the petition must be dismissed as moot (see Matter of Moore v Annucci, 148 AD3d 1445, 1446 [2017]; Matter of Murgo v Racette, 100 AD3d 1244, 1244 [2012]).

Peters, P.J., Egan Jr., Rose, Clark and Rumsey, JJ., concur.

Adjudged that the petition is dismissed, as moot, without costs.
