Belsky v. New York City Transit Authority
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided June 26, 1978
63 A.D.2d 1019; 407 N.Y.S.2d 440; 1978 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 12118
Belsky v. New York City Transit Authority

Opinion of the Court

Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78, inter alia, to review a determination of the respondent, made February 6, 1976, after a hearing, which found petitioner guilty of certain charges of misconduct and terminated his employment. Determination confirmed and proceeding dismissed on the merits, without costs or disbursements. We find that there was substantial evidence to support the finding of the petitioner’s guilt and that the measure of the punishment imposed was not shocking to one’s sense of fairness (see Matter of Pell v Board of Educ., 34 NY2d 222). Hopkins, J. P., Martuscello, Damiani and Rabin, JJ., concur.
