In the Matter of David Joyner, Petitioner, v Floyd Bennett, as Superintendent of Elmira Correctional Facility, Respondent.
[700 NYS2d 867]

Opinion:
—Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 (transferred to this Court by order of the Supreme Court, entered in Chemung County) to review a determination of respondent which found petitioner guilty of violating certain prison disciplinary rules.
The Attorney General has advised this Court by letter that the determination at issue has been administratively reversed and that all references to the disciplinary hearing have been directed to be expunged from petitioner's institutional record. Inasmuch as petitioner has received all the relief to which he is entitled and is no longer aggrieved, the matter is dismissed as moot (see, Matter of Addison v Goord, 265 AD2d 719; Matter of Witherspoon v Goord, 243 AD2d 931).
Cardona, P. J., Mercure, Peters, Spain and Mugglin, JJ., concur. Adjudged that the petition is dismissed, as moot, without costs.
