In a habeas corpus proceeding, petitioner appeals from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Dutchess County, dated November 9, 1976, which dismissed the petition.

Appellant’s good behavior credit is limited by paragraph (a) of subdivision 4 of that same section, and may not exceed one third of his aggregate maximum term. Damiani, J. P., Shapiro, Mollen and O’Connor, JJ., concur.
