MEMORANDUM AND JUDGMENT

Petitioner commenced this CPLR article 78 proceeding to challenge a determination finding him guilty of violating the prison disciplinary rule that prohibits damaging State property. The Attorney-General has advised this Court by letter that the determination has since been annulled and that all references thereto have been expunged from petitioner's institutional records. Inasmuch as petitioner has received all the relief to which he is entitled and is no longer aggrieved, the matter is dismissed as moot (see, Matter of Martinez v. Goord, 288 A.D.2d 794, 733 N.Y.S.2d 645;Matter of Curtis v. Goord, 274 A.D.2d 808).

Crew III, J.P., Peters, Spain, Carpinello and Lahtinen, JJ., concur.

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