In the Matter of La Parisienne Delicatessen, Inc., Respondent, v. Donald S. Hostetter et al., Constituting the New York State Liquor Authority, Appellants.

Order in proceeding under article 78 of CPLR, entered November 12, 1965, annulling determination of State Liquor Authority disapproving petitioner’s application for a retail beer license, and remanding the matter to the Authority for further proceedings, reversed on the law and the petition dismissed, with $30 costs and disbursements to respondents-appellants. The prior experience and history of the applicant’s principal, establishing recurrent recent conduct in criminal gambling activities, provided a rational basis for the determination. There being a rational basis for its determination, the court has no further function in review of the agency’s activity (Matter of Barton Trucking Corp. v. O’Connell, 7 N Y 2d 299 , 308-309).

Concur — Botein, P. J., Breitel, Rabin and Eager, JJ.
