Opinion

November 16, 1994

Appeal from the Supreme Court, Wyoming County, Griffith, J.

Present — Pine, J.P., Balio, Callahan, Davis and Boehm, JJ.


Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: There is no merit to the contention that petitioner was denied effective employee assistance in connection with a superintendent's hearing held in June 1992 on two misbehavior reports arising from an inmate uprising at Southport Correctional Facility on May 28, 1991 (see, Matter of Jenkins v. Coughlin, 190 A.D.2d 937, lv denied 82 N.Y.2d 651; Matter of Serrano v. Coughlin, 152 A.D.2d 790; see also, Matter of Palin v. Coughlin, 209 A.D.2d 970 [decided herewith]). There is likewise no merit to the contentions that the Hearing Officer was biased or that petitioner was prejudiced by the fact that the hearing was held promptly after an earlier hearing had been annulled.
