CA 13–00568

Decided: June 20, 2014

PRESENT: CENTRA, J.P., LINDLEY, SCONIERS, VALENTINO, AND DEJOSEPH, JJ.

WYOMING COUNTY–ATTICA LEGAL AID BUREAU, WARSAW (ADAM W. KOCH OF COUNSEL), FOR PETITIONER–APPELLANT. ERIC T. SCHNEIDERMAN, ATTORNEY GENERAL, ALBANY (MARTIN A. HOTVET OF COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT–RESPONDENT.

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

It is hereby ORDERED that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed without costs.

Memorandum: Petitioner commenced this CPLR article 78 proceeding challenging the determination that denied his grievance concerning the limitations placed on his possession of personal property pursuant to Directive 4913 of the Department of Corrections and Community Supervision. Supreme Court properly dismissed the petition, inasmuch as the determination “was not irrational, arbitrary and capricious or affected by an error of law” (Matter of Abreu v. Fischer, 97 AD3d 877, 879, appeal dismissed and lv. denied 19 NY3d 1096).
