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 respondent finding petitioner guilty of violating certain prison disciplinary rules.Petitioner commenced this CPLR article 78 proceeding challenging a prison disciplinary determination. The Attorney General has advised this Court that the determination 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. Although not mentioned by the Attorney General, the loss of good time incurred by petitioner as a result of the disciplinary determination should also be restored (see Matter of Zoccoli v. Annucci, 140 A.D.3d 1512, 1513, 33 N.Y.S.3d 768 [2016] ). Otherwise, as petitioner has received all the relief to which he is entitled, the proceeding must be dismissed as moot (see Matter of Clark v. New York State Dept. of Corr. & Community Supervision, 138 A.D.3d 1331, 1332, 28 N.Y.S.3d 639 [2016] ; Matter of Corrieri v. Annucci, 137 A.D.3d 1407, 1408, 25 N.Y.S.3d 920 [2016] ).
