Opinion
June 5, 1995
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Vinik, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is reversed, on the law, with costs, and the proceeding is dismissed on the merits.
Upon our review of the record, we find that the evidence offered at the hearing supported the findings of the Chancellor of the City School District of the City of New York (hereinafter the Chancellor), and therefore the determination was not arbitrary and capricious (see, Matter of Chauvel v. Nyquist, 43 N.Y.2d 48). Accordingly, the Supreme Court erred in weighing the evidence and substituting its judgment for that of the Chancellor (see, Matter of Strongin v. Nyquist, 44 N.Y.2d 943, cert denied 440 U.S. 901).
In light of our determination we need not reach the other issues raised by the appellants. Sullivan, J.P., Rosenblatt, O'Brien and Thompson, JJ., concur.
