Opinion
December 10, 1992
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Albany County (Conway, J.).
Decisions of the Board of Parole are discretionary and not subject to judicial review if made in accordance with the requirements of the statute (Matter of McKee v New York State Bd. of Parole, 157 A.D.2d 944). The Board denied petitioner's request for parole in this case based upon the seriousness of the offense and his apparent need for psychological counseling. We find that these reasons were supported by the record and that the determination was made in accordance with the law (see, Matter of Wright v Parole Div., 132 A.D.2d 821; Matter of Ristau v Hammock, 103 A.D.2d 944, lv denied 63 N.Y.2d 608). We find petitioner's other arguments to be without merit.
Weiss, P.J., Levine, Crew III, Mahoney and Harvey, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, without costs.
