Adjudged that the determination is confirmed, without costs or disbursements, the petition is denied, and the proceeding is dismissed on the merits.
Contrary to the petitioner's contention, the misbehavior report, the hearing testimony, and other documents presented at the hearing provided substantial evidence to support the hearing officer's determination that he was guilty of the charge brought against him ( see Matter of Foster v Coughlin, 76 NY2d 964, 966; People ex rel. Vega v Smith, 66 NY2d 130, 140; Matter of Reyes v Leclaire, 49 AD3d 884). Any credibility issues were resolved by the hearing officer, and we find no basis upon which to disturb the hearing officer's determination ( see Matter of Perez v Wilmot, 67 NY2d 615, 617; Matter of Armstrong v Phillips, 44 AD3d 759).
The petitioner's contention that he was unable to prepare an adequate defense is without merit. The misbehavior report provided sufficient particulars to allow the petitioner to make an effective response to the charge against him and, consequently, he was not denied due process ( see Matter of Lozada v Selsky, 306 AD2d 413).
