MEMORANDUM AND JUDGMENT

Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 (transferred to this Court by order of the Supreme Court, entered in Albany County) to review a determination of respondent finding petitioner guilty of violating a prison disciplinary rule.

Petitioner commenced this CPLR article 78 proceeding seeking to challenge a tier III disciplinary determination finding him guilty of violating a prison disciplinary rule. The Attorney General has advised this Court that the determination has been administratively reversed, all references thereto have been expunged from petitioner's institutional record and the $5 mandatory surcharge was not charged to petitioner's institutional account. Accordingly, petitioner has received all of the relief to which he is entitled and the petition must be dismissed as

moot (see Matter of Stays v Annucci, 141 AD3d 1070, 1070 [2016]; Matter of Mathie v Yelich, 62 AD3d 1064, 1064 [2009]).

Garry, P.J., Egan Jr., Clark, Mulvey and Rumsey, JJ., concur.

ADJUDGED that the petition is dismissed, as moot, without costs.
