MATTER OF MANGONON v. REGAN

Upon our review of the record we find substantial evidence to support respondent's determination that the incident of February 6, 1980 did not constitute an accident within the meaning of the Retirement and Social Security Law. Contrary to petitioner's contention, her injury was a risk inherent in her regular duties as a rehabilitation assistant and, while the patient's seizure may have been sudden, it was not out of the ordinary or unexpected. Petitioner's remaining contention has been considered and found to be lacking in merit.

Mikoll, J.P., Crew III, White, Casey and Peters, JJ., concur. Adjudged that the determination is confirmed, without costs, and petition dismissed.
