Opinion
July 29, 1991
Adjudged that the determination is confirmed and the proceeding is dismissed on the merits, with costs.
The instant proceeding stems from repair work performed by the petitioner upon a vehicle which had been damaged in an automobile accident. The record of the administrative hearing clearly established, among other things, that the petitioner had represented in his invoice that he had replaced certain parts of the automobile which in fact were not replaced, and that he failed to effect quality repairs. Since the respondent's determination was supported by substantial evidence, that determination may not be disturbed (see, Matter of Lahey v Kelly, 71 N.Y.2d 135, 140; 300 Gramatan Ave. Assocs. v State Div. of Human Rights, 45 N.Y.2d 176; Matter of Koh v Perales, 173 A.D.2d 477).
Furthermore, the petitioner was not deprived of his right to cross-examine certain witnesses (see, Matter of Gray v Adduci, 73 N.Y.2d 741, 743).
We have examined the petitioner's remaining contentions and find them to be without merit. Kooper, J.P., Lawrence, Eiber and O'Brien, JJ., concur.
