Smart v. Fischer

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Third Department
Sep 24, 2009
65 A.D.3d 1436 (N.Y. App. Div. 2009)

Opinion

No. 506345.

September 24, 2009.

Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 (transferred to this Court by order of the Supreme Court, entered in Albany County) to review a determination of respondent which found petitioner guilty of violating a certain prison disciplinary rule.

Nigel Smart, Malone, petitioner pro se.

Andrew M. Cuomo, Attorney General, Albany (Martin A. Hotvet of counsel), for respondent.

Before: Mercure, J.P., Rose, Kane, Stein and Garry, JJ., concur.


Petitioner, a prison inmate, commenced this proceeding challenging a tier III disciplinary determination finding him guilty of "demonstration." The Attorney General has advised this Court that the administrative determination at issue has been reversed and all references thereto have been expunged from petitioner's institutional record. Accordingly, petitioner has received all the relief to which he is entitled and this matter is therefore moot ( see Matter of Hart v Fischer, 60 AD3d 1226; Matter of York v Fischer, 55 AD3d 1096).

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