In the Matter of ALFONSO
RIZZUTO,
Petitioner,
v MEMORANDUM AND JUDGMENT
ALBERT PRACK, as Director of
Special Housing and Inmate
Disciplinary Programs,
Respondent.
________________________________
Calendar Date: October 27, 2015
Before: Peters, P.J., McCarthy, Egan Jr. and Devine, JJ.
__________
Alfonso Rizzuto, Duryea, Pennsylvania, petitioner pro se.
Eric T. Schneiderman, Attorney General, Albany (Kathleen M.
Arnold of counsel), for respondent.
__________
Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 (transferred to this
Court by order of the Supreme Court, entered in Albany County) to
review a determination of the Commissioner of Corrections and
Community Supervision finding petitioner guilty of violating a
prison disciplinary rule.
Petitioner commenced this CPLR article 78 proceeding
challenging a determination finding him guilty of violating a
prison disciplinary rule. The Attorney General has advised this
Court that the disciplinary determination has since been
administratively reversed, all references thereto have been
expunged from petitioner's institutional record and the mandatory
$5 surcharge has been refunded to petitioner's inmate account.
In view of this, and given that petitioner has received all of
-2- 518700
the relief to which he is entitled, the petition is dismissed as
moot (see Matter of Shields v Prack, 131 AD3d 774, 774-775
[2015]; Matter of Proctor v Annucci, 131 AD3d 751 [2015]).
Peters, P.J., McCarthy, Egan Jr. and Devine, JJ., concur.
ADJUDGED that the petition is dismissed, as moot, without
costs.
