In the Matter of Salih Abdullah, Petitioner, v Glenn S. Goord, as Commissioner of the New York State Department of Correctional Services, Respondent.
[660 NYS2d 1014]

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 which found petitioner guilty of violating certain prison disciplinary rules.

The Attorney-General has advised this Court by letter that respondent is not submitting a brief and requests that this proceeding be dismissed as moot inasmuch as the determination under review has been administratively reversed and ex-pungement has been directed. Because petitioner has received all the relief to which he is entitled, the matter is moot and the petition is dismissed (see, Matter of Martin v Henderson, 159 AD2d 867 ).

Mikoll, J. P., White, Casey, Peters and Spain, JJ., concur. Adjudged that the petition is dismissed, as moot, without costs.
