ORDERED that the final order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
A hearing court's assessment of the credibility of witnesses is entitled to substantial deference as it had the advantage of seeing and hearing the witnesses (see, McGuirk v. Mugs Pub, 250 A.D.2d 824). Based upon the credibility of the witnesses, the Supreme Court determined that the address which Abdur Rahman Farrakhan listed on the designating petition was not one of his residences. We perceive no reason to disturb that determination on appeal.
