Judgment affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

The record herein supports a conclusion that the respondent met his “modest” burden of establishing that the petitioner was not “ ‘subject to the convenience and the practical control of the Parole Board’ ” (People ex rel. Gonzales v Dalsheim, 52 NY2d 9 , 14, quoting People ex rel. Walsh v Vincent, 40 NY2d 1049 , 1050; Matter of Vasquez v New York State Bd. of Parole, 58 NY2d 981 ). Lazer, J. P., Mangano, Gibbons and Niehoff, JJ., concur.
