25 A.D.3d 484 (N.Y. App. Div. 2006)

Opinion

7660.

January 24, 2006.

Decision after fair hearing before New York State Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance, dated December 10, 2003, which affirmed the determination of the New York City Human Resources Administration as to violation of the Public Assistance and Food Stamp programs, and directed the Administration to disqualify petitioner from the Public Assistance Program for 12 months and from the Food Stamp Program for one year, unanimously confirmed, the petition denied and the CPLR article 78 proceeding (transferred to this Court by order of the Supreme Court, New York County [Faviola A. Soto, J.], entered July 1, 2004) dismissed, without costs.

Steven Banks, The Legal Aid Society, New York and Kaye Scholer, New York (Sarah Welbourne Saunders of counsel), for appellant.

Eliot Spitzer, Attorney General, New York (Marion R. Buchbinder of counsel), for Robert Doar, respondent. Michael A. Cardozo, Corporation Counsel, New York (Suzanne K. Colt of counsel), for municipal respondent.

Before: Mazzarelli, J.P., Andrias, Marlow, Williams and Sweeny, JJ., concur.


In light of substantial evidence supporting the administrative determination that petitioner intentionally violated the Public Assistance and Food Stamp programs by failing to report that she and her daughter were employed during the relevant time period ( see Matter of Williams v. Perales, 156 AD2d 697), there is no basis for disturbing that ruling ( see 300 Gramatan Ave. Assoc. v. State Div. of Human Rights, 45 NY2d 176, 181-182).
