Opinion
December 11, 1990
Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Stanley Parness, J.).
Respondent refused to renew petitioner's license as a taxi broker because petitioner's principal was admittedly convicted on felony charges arising out of a scheme to divert money that was to have been used to finance the purchase and sale of taxi "medallion" licenses. The notice of hearing was sufficient to apprise the petitioner of pendency of the charges and to afford it the opportunity to present objections, and the proceedings otherwise complied with the requirements of due process (Silverstein v. Minkin, 49 N.Y.2d 260, rearg denied 50 N.Y.2d 929; Matter of Erdman v. Ingraham, 28 A.D.2d 5, mot. to dismiss appeal withdrawn 20 N.Y.2d 768). Although the hearing was informal, petitioner voiced no objection, and may not now be heard to complain. Finally, the determination is adequately supported by adequate proof (Matter of Berenhaus v. Ward, 70 N.Y.2d 436).
We have considered petitioner's remaining arguments and find them to be without merit.
