Matter of Gonzalez v. Coughlin

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Third Department
Nov 18, 1993
198 A.D.2d 683 (N.Y. App. Div. 1993)

Opinion

November 18, 1993

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Clinton County (Feldstein, J.).


As petitioner has demonstrated no statutory or constitutional guarantee to his prison job, he is not entitled to a credit for the amount of money he did not receive as a result of a disciplinary disposition which was subsequently reversed and expunged. In any event, the appropriate forum for seeking back pay would be an action in the Court of Claims. The remaining contentions raised by petitioner have been considered and found to be lacking in merit.

Mercure, J.P., Cardona, White, Mahoney and Casey, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, without costs.
