Since the petition raised an issue of substantial evidence, Supreme Court should have transferred the proceeding to this Court pursuant to CPLR 7804 (g) ( Matter of Stroman v. Franco, 253 A.D.2d 398). Upon our de novo review of the record, we find that respondent's determination that petitioner was guilty of possessing contraband was supported by substantial evidence. We have considered petitioner's related arguments and find them unavailing.
Concur — Lerner, P. J., Sullivan, Rosenberger, Ellerin and Rubin, JJ.
