IN THE MATTER OF BARRY SANDERS, Petitioner, v. GLENN S. GOORD, AS COMMISSIONER OF THE DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONAL SERVICES, ET AL., Respondents.

MEMORANDUM AND JUDGMENT

Contrary to petitioner's assertion, the misbehavior report and his testimony at the hearing provide substantial evidence to support the decision finding him guilty of unauthorized exchange of personal items, a movement violation and disobeying a direct order in violation of prison disciplinary rules (see, Matter of Moore v. Portuondo, 267 A.D.2d 537). The misbehavior report indicates that upon being released from his cell for call out, petitioner ran back to another prisoner's cell and handed him an unidentified object rather than waiting outside his own cell as instructed. Thereafter, petitioner was ordered to "lock-in" his cell three times before he complied. Petitioner's own statements at the hearing corroborated these events. Petitioner's remaining contentions, including that the Hearing Officer altered the evidence, have been reviewed and found to be either unpreserved for our review or without merit.

ADJUDGED that the determination is confirmed, without costs, and petition dismissed.
