Lorenzo v. Codd

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Mar 16, 1978
61 A.D.2d 918 (N.Y. App. Div. 1978)

Opinion

March 16, 1978


Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County, entered June 8, 1977, granting the petition in this article 78 proceeding to the extent of reducing the penalty to a 15-day suspension, unanimously reversed, on the law, without costs or disbursements, vacated, and the determination of respondent police commissioner dated October 30, 1975 confirmed in its entirety. The punishment imposed was not so disproportionate to the offense to shock one's sense of fairness so as to warrant adjustment by the court of the agency's sanction. (See Matter of Pell v Board of Educ., 34 N.Y.2d 222; Matter of Marksamer v Guggenheimer, 43 N.Y.2d 857.)

Concur — Murphy, P.J., Lupiano, Silverman, Markewich and Sandler, JJ.
