Opinion
June 3, 1999.
Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Ira Gammerman, J.).
Since there was credible evidence in support of the Medical Board's finding that petitioner's disability is due to chronic osteoarthritis and is not attributable to any one or combination of petitioner's line of duty injuries, the determination of the Board of Trustees to credit the findings of the Medical Board and deny petitioner an accidental disability pension may not be disturbed. The Board, in reaching its determination upon petitioner's accidental disability pension application, was entitled to rely on the findings and medical advice of the Medical Board ( see, Matter of Meyer v. Board of Trustees, 90 N.Y.2d 139, 148-152; Matter of Drayson v. Board of Trustees, 37 A.D.2d 378, 381, affd 32 N.Y.2d 852).
