CATAQUET v. HERNANDEZ-PINERO

This Court will not second guess the Hearing Officer's rejection of petitioner's version of events as incredible (see, Matter of Serrano v Popolizio, 183 A.D.2d 430). Given that the police had a search warrant for petitioner's premises, and that substantial quantities of narcotics were seized from various locations within her apartment, there was substantial evidence to support the Hearing Officer's ultimate conclusions of fact (see, Matter of Blanco v Popolizio, 190 A.D.2d 554, 555).
