Matter of Gittens v. Sullivan

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jul 29, 1991
175 A.D.2d 286 (N.Y. App. Div. 1991)

Opinion

July 29, 1991


Adjudged that the determination is confirmed, and the proceeding is dismissed on the merits, without costs or disbursements.

Following a Tier II disciplinary hearing, it was determined that the petitioner had made a threatening gesture towards a Correction Officer, in violation of inmate rule 102.10 ( 7 NYCRR 270.1 [b] [3]). Contrary to the petitioner's contention, the record establishes that the determination was supported by substantial evidence (see, Matter of Perez v Wilmot, 67 N.Y.2d 615; People ex rel. Vega v Smith, 66 N.Y.2d 130), and accordingly, it is confirmed.

We have reviewed the petitioner's remaining contention and find that it is without merit. Kooper, J.P., Lawrence, Eiber and O'Brien, JJ., concur.
