Ronald Burgess, Stormville, petitioner pro se.

Eric T. Schneiderman, Attorney General, Albany (Marcus J. Mastracco of counsel), for respondent.

Opinion

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 the Commissioner of Corrections and Community Supervision finding petitioner guilty of violating a prison disciplinary rule.

Petitioner commenced this CPLR article 78 proceeding challenging a tier III disciplinary determination that found him guilty of drug use. The Attorney General has advised this Court that the determination at issue has been administratively reversed, all references thereto have been expunged from petitioner's institutional record and the mandatory $5 surcharge has been refunded to petitioner's inmate account. As petitioner has received all the relief to which he is entitled, the matter must be dismissed as moot (see Matter of Shields v. Prack, 131 A.D.3d 774, 775, 14 N.Y.S.3d 720 2015 ).

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

McCARTHY, J.P., GARRY, DEVINE and CLARK, JJ., concur.
