Opinion
244
February 20, 2003.
Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Brenda Soloff, J.), entered March 19, 2002, which denied petitioner's application for a writ of habeas corpus, and dismissed the petition, unanimously affirmed, without costs.
ROBERT WATSON, Pro Se.
MELANIE L. OXHORN, for Respondent-Respondent.
Before: Saxe, J.P., Buckley, Rosenberger, Lerner, Gonzalez, JJ.
The Parole Board's determination denying petitioner parole was rationally based on the seriousness of petitioner's crimes (see Matter of Silmon v. Travis, 95 N.Y.2d 470, 476). To the extent that petitioner challenges the Board's 1999 denial of parole, review of that determination is barred by the four-month statute of limitations (see Matter of Carter v. State of New York, 95 N.Y.2d 267, 270). We have considered petitioner's other arguments and find them to be without merit.
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF THE SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
