MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Petitioner has been in prison since 1994 serving concurrent prison sentences of 6/12; years to life for criminal possession of a controlled substance in the second degree and 4 to 9 years for criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree. In December 1999, the Board of Parole denied petitioner's application for parole release. Supreme Court dismissed the CPLR article 78 proceeding to review that determination and we affirm.
The record demonstrates that the Board considered the relevant statutory factors in denying petitioner's request for parole release. The Board is not required to enumerate or give equal weight to each statutory factor (see, Matter of Charlemagne v. State of New York Div. of Parole, 281 A.D.2d 669 [Mar. 1, 2001]) or to expressly discuss each factor considered (see, Matter of Rivera v. State of New York Executive Dept. Bd. of Parole, 268 A.D.2d 928). In light of petitioner's failure to demonstrate that the Board's determination was affected by a "`showing of irrationality bordering on impropriety'" (Matter of Silmon v. Travis, 95 N.Y.2d 470, 476, quoting Matter of Russo v. New York State Bd. of Parole, 50 N.Y.2d 69, 77), we find no reason to disturb the discretionary determination that petitioner was not an acceptable candidate for parole release (see, Matter of Felder v. Travis, 278 A.D.2d 570, 717 N.Y.S.2d 683).
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed, without costs.
