*1305 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 respondent which found petitioner guilty of violating certain prison disciplinary rules.
A routine search of petitioner’s prison cell disclosed numerous items, including a piece of paper containing credit card information belonging to another person, 63 V2 black pills that tested positive for amphetamines using a narcotics identification kit (see 7 NYCRR 1010.4 [e]) and 6V2 white pills that were never identified. Petitioner was charged in a misbehavior report with possession of credit card information, possession of drugs (for the black pills), possession of contraband, smuggling and committing a penal law offense. After a tier III disciplinary hearing, petitioner was found guilty of possession of drugs and possession of credit card information and not guilty of the remaining charges. The determination was affirmed on administrative appeal and this CPLR article 78 followed.
We confirm. The misbehavior report, testimony of the sergeant who tested the pills, petitioner’s own testimony and the related documentary evidence provided substantial evidence to support the determination of guilt (see Matter of Campbell v Prack, 118 AD3d 1202, 1202 [2014]). Contrary to petitioner’s claim, the testimony of the testing sergeant and information provided in the request for test of controlled substance form established that proper testing procedures were followed, the testing officer was a certified operator, and that an unbroken chain of custody was maintained in which the only two people who handled the pills signed the form (see 7 NYCRR 1010.4; Matter of Sanabria v Annucci, 123 AD3d 1328, 1329 [2014]; Matter of Davis v Fischer, 98 AD3d 1154, 1155 [2012] ). Further, we find that petitioner’s right to call witnesses was not violated, as he failed to demonstrate that any of the requested witnesses could have provided testimony that was relevant to the charges or material to any issue in dispute (see Matter of Canty v Esgrow, 83 AD3d 1322, 1322 [2011], lv denied 17 NY3d 705 [2011], cert denied 565 US —, 132 S Ct 1020 [2012]; Matter of White v Fischer, 108 AD3d 891, 892 [2013] , lv denied 22 NY3d 853 [2013]). Petitioner’s request to call the sergeant who trained the testing officer and the facility nurse with regard to the chain of custody and testing procedures was properly denied as the prospective witnesses never handled or possessed the pills and did not participate in the *1306 testing. * Petitioner’s remaining claims are either unpreserved or lack merit.
Adjudged that the determination is confirmed, without costs, and petition dismissed.
The facility nurse observed the pills but was unable to identify them.
