Head Matter:
In the Matter of Rudy Vargas, Petitioner, v Glenn Goord, as Commissioner of the New York State Department of Correctional Services, et al., Respondents.
[706 NYS2d 369]

Opinion:
—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 Commissioner of Correctional Services 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 thereto will be expunged from petitioner's institutional record. Because petitioner has received all the relief to which he is entitled, the petition is dismissed as moot (see, Matter of Mafuz v Goord, 264 AD2d 887).
Mercure, J. P., Crew III, Peters, Carpinello and Graffeo, JJ., concur. Adjudged that the petition is dismissed, as moot, without costs.
