Appeal from the Supreme Court, Oneida County, Grow, J.
Present — Green, J.P., Pine, Balio, Callahan and Boehm, JJ.
Determination unanimously confirmed and petition dismissed. Memorandum: In this pro se CPLR article 78 proceeding transferred to our Court pursuant to CPLR 7804 (g), petitioner contends that respondents violated his due process rights by failing to abide by their rules and regulations when he was involuntarily placed in administrative segregation. That contention is without merit because petitioner had not been charged with any violation of prison regulations (see, Matter of Blake v. Coughlin, 189 A.D.2d 1016, 1017; Matter of Bryant v Mann, 160 A.D.2d 1086, 1088, lv denied 76 N.Y.2d 706). The hearing was held to determine whether petitioner should be administratively segregated for reasons of prison security (see, Matter of Bryant v. Mann, supra, at 1089). We conclude that the determination is supported by substantial evidence (see, Matter of Robinson v. Leonardo, 179 A.D.2d 951, lv denied 79 N.Y.2d 759).
