Matter of Eden v. Board of Regents

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Third Department
Nov 26, 1979
78 A.D.2d 952 (N.Y. App. Div. 1979)

Opinion

November 26, 1979


Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 (initiated in this court pursuant to subdivision 4 of section 6510 Educ. of the Education Law) to review a determination of the Commissioner of Education which suspended petitioner's license to practice podiatry for a period of three months and imposed a fine of $1,000. Petitioner's contention that the penalty imposed is disproportionate to the offense and shocking to one's sense of fairness is without merit (Matter of Yasmer v. Ambach, 78 A.D.2d 752; Matter of Foreman v Board of Regents of Univ. of State of N.Y., 75 A.D.2d 953). Petitioner's argument that the charge committee was forced to vote charges by a member of the Education Department's legal staff is without merit. We have examined petitioner's other contentions and find them unpersuasive. Determination confirmed, and petition dismissed, without costs. Mahoney, P.J., Greenblott, Main, Mikoll and Herlihy, JJ., concur.
