Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 (initiated in this Court pursuant to CPLR 506 [b] [1]) to review a determination of respondent which revoked petitioner’s pistol permit.
Petitioner applied for and was granted a pistol permit in June 2000. Subsequently, petitioner was arrested and charged with stalking in the fourth degree in connection with his repeated unwelcomed interactions with his ex-girlfriend and her family. As a result, respondent thereafter suspended petitioner’s pistol permit. Following dismissal of the charge, respondent held a hearing on the matter and, finding that petitioner lacked the requisite maturity, good judgment and temperament to carry a pistol, revoked petitioner’s pistol permit. Petitioner commenced this proceeding seeking annulment of respondent’s determination.
Here, respondent considered the complaint and incident report filed in connection with the stalking charge as well as the testimony of both petitioner and his ex-girlfriend. Based upon our review of this evidence, we do not find respondent’s conclusion, that petitioner does not possess the “maturity, prudence, carefulness, good character, temperament, demeanor and judgment” necessary to have a pistol permit, either unsupported by the record or arbitrary and capricious (see Matter of Peterson v Kavanagh, supra at 618; Matter of Hassig v Nicandri, 2 AD3d 1118, 1119 [2003], lv denied 2 NY3d 701 [2004]).
Mercure, J.P., Spain, Rose and Kane, JJ., concur. Adjudged that the determination is confirmed, without costs, and petition dismissed.
