In the Matter of Jose Rodriguez, Petitioner, v Glenn S. Goord, as Commissioner of the Department of Correctional Services, et al., Respondents.
[687 NYS2d 310]

Opinion:
—Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 (transferred to this Court by order of the Supreme Court, entered in Washington 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 that the determination at issue has been administratively reversed and that all references to the disciplinary hearing were 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 Witherspoon v Goord, 243 AD2d 931).
Mikoll, J. P., Mercure, Yesawich Jr., Spain and Graffeo, JJ., concur. Adjudged that the petition is dismissed, as moot, without costs.
