Opinion
September 30, 1987
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Wyoming County, Dadd, J.
Present — Doerr, J.P., Boomer, Pine, Balio and Davis, JJ.
Determination unanimously modified on the law and as modified confirmed, in accordance with the following memorandum: The decision of the Hearing Officer that petitioner violated rule 106.10 of the regulations governing inmate behavior ( 7 NYCRR 270.1 [b] [7]) is not supported by substantial evidence and it must therefore be nullified and expunged from petitioner's record. Respondents concede that petitioner's failure to appear at his work program, without more, does not constitute failure to obey a direct order of facility personnel in violation of rule 106.10.
In all other respects, the decision of the Hearing Officer is supported by substantial evidence and should be confirmed (see, People ex rel. Vega v. Smith, 66 N.Y.2d 130).
