Matter of Hetherington v. Coughlin

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Feb 2, 1987
127 A.D.2d 594 (N.Y. App. Div. 1987)

Opinion

February 2, 1987

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Dutchess County (Gladwin, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is reversed, on the law, without costs or disbursements, the judgment, dated August 2, 1984, is vacated, the petition is granted and it is directed that the notation that the petitioner is a fugitive from the Alabama Correctional System is to be expunged from his prison file.

It is uncontested that the reference to the petitioner in his prison file as a fugitive from the Alabama Correctional System is incorrect. In order to insure that this false information is not considered in future deliberations concerning the petitioner's status, the notation should be expunged. Mollen, P.J., Bracken, Lawrence, Kooper and Sullivan, JJ., concur.
