MATTER OF MULERO v. COUGHLIN III

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements.

We reject the petitioner's contention that he was deprived of his right to due process by his assistant's failure to interview certain witnesses and to obtain certain documentary evidence in preparation for the petitioner's superintendent's hearing, since the record demonstrates that he suffered no prejudice as a result of these failures (see, Matter of Raqiyb v. Bartlett, 186 A.D.2d 327; Matter of Dixon v. Coughlin, 178 A.D.2d 984; Matter of Curry v. Coughlin, 175 A.D.2d 970; Matter of Irby v. Kelly, 161 A.D.2d 860).

Balletta, J.P., Thompson, Santucci, Altman and Hart, JJ., concur.
