Petitioner commenced this CPLR article 78 proceeding to challenge a determination finding him guilty of violating prison disciplinary rules prohibiting violent conduct, making threats and refusing to obey a direct order. Contrary to petitioner's contention, the detailed misbehavior report, which was written by the facility employee who was the victim of the alleged misconduct, was "`sufficiently relevant and probative' to constitute substantial evidence" of his guilt ( Matter of Foster v. Coughlin, 76 NY2d 964, 966 [citations omitted], quoting Matter of Perez v. Wilmot, 67 NY2d 615, 616-617; see Matter of Johnson v. Goord, 4 AD3d 582, 583-584, lv denied 2 NY3d 708). The explanation offered by petitioner merely raised an issue of credibility that the Hearing Officer was free to resolve ( see Matter of McCann v. Goord, 4 AD3d 712). To the extent that they were preserved, petitioner's remaining contentions, including his claim of hearing officer bias, have been reviewed and found to be unsupported by the record.
Adjudged that the determination is confirmed, without costs, and petition dismissed.
