ROSENBERGER, J.P., WILLIAMS, RUBIN, ANDRIAS, BUCKLEY, JJ.
Petitioner was given reasonable notice of and a fair opportunity to be heard with respect to the three underlying violations, and was not otherwise deprived of due process. We have considered and rejected petitioner's argument that the penalty of license revocation is excessive.
THIS CONSTITUTES THE DECISION AND ORDER OF SUPREME COURT, APPELLATE DIVISION, FIRST DEPARTMENT.
