MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Petitioner was convicted of robbery in the first degree in 1979 and was sentenced to a term providing for a maximum of 10 years in prison. After petitioner was released to parole supervision, he was rearrested on a new charge and convicted in 1985 of robbery in the first degree and was sentenced as a second violent felony offender to a term of 12 1/2 to 25 years in prison. Petitioner brought this application seeking a writ of habeas corpus, principally claiming that he was improperly sentenced as a second violent felony offender and the present term of his imprisonment was improperly calculated. Petitioner also disputes the most recent denial of his request for parole release. Petitioner's application for habeas corpus relief was dismissed by Supreme Court and we affirm.
It is well settled that habeas corpus relief is inappropriate in cases where the claimed errors could have been advanced on direct appeal or in a CPL article 440 motion or remedied by means of an administrative appeal (see, People ex rel. Jackson v. McGinnis, 251 A.D.2d 731, appeal dismissed, lv denied 92 N.Y.2d 913; People ex rel. Vazquez v. Travis, 236 A.D.2d 745, 746,appeal dismissed 91 N.Y.2d 847). Here, we note that petitioner's 1985 conviction was affirmed by the Second Department in 1988 (see, People v. Rolon, 145 A.D.2d 658, lvs denied 73 N.Y.2d 982, 74 N.Y.2d 668) and the dismissal of the CPLR article 78 proceeding he commenced challenging the recalculation of his sentence was affirmed by this court in 1990 (see, Matter of Rolon v. Senkowski, 160 A.D.2d 1072, 1073). Upon review of the issues currently before this court, we find nothing presented herein which would justify a departure from traditional orderly procedure (see, People ex rel. Woodard v. Berry, 143 A.D.2d 457, lv denied 73 N.Y.2d 705).
As for petitioner's additional contention that he was recently improperly denied parole release, we note that he fails to indicate whether an administrative appeal has been pursued. In any event, we are unpersuaded that petitioner has raised the type of claim "that would justify departing from the general rule requiring exhaustion of administrative remedies" (People ex rel. Gibbs v. New York Bd. of Parole, 251 A.D.2d 718, 718, lv denied 92 N.Y.2d 814).
The remaining arguments raised by petitioner have been examined and found to be similarly unpersuasive.
Crew III, J.P., Carpinello, Graffeo, Rose and Lahtinen, JJ., concur.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed, without costs.
