Opinion

In the Matter of Edmir GEGA, Petitioner, v. Anthony J. ANNUCCI, as Commissioner of Corrections and Community Supervision, Respondent.

Edmir Gega, Attica, petitioner pro se. Eric T. Schneiderman, Attorney General, Albany (Marcus J. Mastracco of counsel), for respondent.


Edmir Gega, Attica, petitioner pro se.

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

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 determination finding him guilty of violating numerous prison disciplinary rules. The Attorney General has advised this Court that the determination has since been administratively reversed, all references thereto have been expunged from petitioner's institutional record and the $5 mandatory surcharge has been refunded to petitioner's inmate account. Although petitioner requests reinstatement of privileges, he is not entitled to be restored to the status that he enjoyed prior to the disciplinary determination (see Matter of West v. Annucci, 134 A.D.3d 1379, 1380, 21 N.Y.S.3d 643 [2015] ). However, the loss of good time that was imposed as part of the penalty should be restored to petitioner (see Matter of Garnes v. Annucci, 144 A.D.3d 1277, 1277, 40 N.Y.S.3d 292 [2016] ). Otherwise, given that petitioner has been granted all of the relief to which he is entitled, the petition must be dismissed as moot (see Matter of Simmons v. Kirkpatrick, 142 A.D.3d 1245, 1245, 37 N.Y.S.3d 717 [2016] ).

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

McCARTHY, J.P., GARRY, LYNCH, DEVINE and MULVEY, JJ., concur.
