Matter of Whitehead v. Russi

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Third Department

201 A.D.2d 825 (N.Y. App. Div. 1994)

Opinion

February 10, 1994

Appeal from the Supreme Court, St. Lawrence County (Duskas, J.).


Petitioner's application should have been dismissed due to his failure to exhaust administrative remedies; the fact that petitioner may have ultimately perfected his administrative appeal does not absolve him of this requirement or validate this petition nunc pro tunc. In any event, were we to reach the merits we would find that the determination denying petitioner's request for parole should be upheld. The Board's decision was not only sufficiently detailed to inform petitioner of the reasons for the denial of parole, but it satisfied the requirements of Executive Law § 259-i and Correction Law § 805. Consequently, the determination is not subject to judicial intervention. Nor do we find the determination terminating his participation in the work release program to be violative of any statutory requirements.

Cardona, P.J., Mikoll, Crew III, Casey and Weiss, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, without costs.
