DECISION & ORDER
Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78, inter alia, to review a determination of the respondent Purchase College of the State University of New York, dated October 17, 2014. The determination upheld a decision of the Disciplinary Hearing Committee of the respondent Purchase College of the State University of New York dated October 7, 2014, finding that the petitioner committed disciplinary violations, and expelled the petitioner from the school. By decision and judgment dated September 19, 2018, this Court confirmed the determination, denied the petition, and dismissed the proceeding on the merits (see Matter of Bursch v Purchase Coll. of the State Univ. of N.Y., 164 AD3d 1324, revd 33 NY3d 1014). On June 6, 2019, the Court of Appeals reversed the decision and judgment of this Court, granted the petition insofar as it sought to annul the determination, and remitted the matter to this Court "with directions to remand to respondents for a new disciplinary hearing" (Matter of Bursch v Purchase Coll. of the State Univ. of N.Y., 33 NY3d 1014, 1016).
ORDERED that upon remittitur from the Court of Appeals, the matter is remitted to the respondents for a new disciplinary hearing in accordance with the memorandum of the Court of Appeals in Matter of Bursch v Purchase Coll. of the State Univ. of N.Y. (33 NY3d 1014).
MASTRO, J.P., COHEN, MILLER, BRATHWAITE NELSON and IANNACCI, JJ., concur.
