New York Court of Appeals

In the Matter of Robert Carter, Appellant v. State of New York, Executive Department, Division of Parole, Respondent

October 17, 200095 N.Y.2d 267

Summary

The Court affirmed the Appellate Division’s dismissal of petitioner’s article 78 proceeding, holding that the Division of Parole’s appeals unit decision was a final administrative determination for purposes of CPLR 217, so the four‑month limitations period began on the mailing of that decision and the petition filed six months later was untimely.
