THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK ex rel. FRED MABERY, Appellant, v. ARTHUR A. LEONARDO, as Superintendent of Great Meadow Correctional Facility, Respondent.

We agree with Supreme Court's determination that petitioner was not entitled to habeas corpus relief. His 25-year New York prison sentence will not expire until 1999 and it is this date, not the original conditional release date of February 21, 1991, which is the point in time at which the right to release would accrue (see, People ex rel. Miranda v. Kuhlmann, 127 A.D.2d 924, lv denied 69 N.Y.2d 612). Thus, even if we accept petitioner's claim that his New York and North Carolina sentences ran concurrently, no habeas corpus relief would lie because his New York sentence has still not expired. In addition, putting aside the question of whether Supreme Court properly converted the matter to a CPLR article 78 proceeding, such a proceeding was time barred (see, CPLR 217; Matter of Bogle v. Mann, 175 A.D.2d 409). At the latest, petitioner was notified on December 28, 1988 of the alleged improper second computation release date. This proceeding, commenced in July 1990, exceeded the four-month Statute of Limitations and was therefore untimely.

Mahoney, P.J., Casey, Levine, Mercure and Harvey, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, without costs.
