—Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Eugene Nardelli, J.), entered October 13, 1992, which granted defendants’ motion for summary judgment and dismissed plaintiff’s complaint in its entirety, unanimously affirmed, without costs.
Plaintiff purports to state a claim pursuant to Civil Service Law § 75-b based upon his allegations that defendants refused to appoint him to the positions of Medical Director or Assistant Medical Director due, in part, to his dissemination to various governmental bodies and officials of information which he believed proved that the person appointed to the position of Medical Director was not properly certified. He also seeks a name-clearing hearing, alleging that his constitutional rights were violated by defendant’s purportedly malicious publication in the Chief — Leader of a statement that petitioner was terminated from his employment due to "unsatisfactory performance”.
For the reason that petitioner seeks only to vindicate his individual interests, his claims are precluded for failure to file a notice of claim pursuant to Public Authorities Law § 1212
