    In the Matter of Marc Douglas, Petitioner, v Brian Fischer, as Commissioner of Corrections and Community Supervision, Respondent.
    [981 NYS2d 887]
   Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 (transferred to this Court by order of the Supreme Court, entered in Albany County) to review a determination of respondent which found petitioner guilty of violating certain prison disciplinary rules.

Petitioner commenced this CPLR article 78 proceeding challenging a disciplinary determination finding him guilty of disobeying a direct order and failing to comply with frisk procedures. The misbehavior report relates that petitioner was observed with a small, white, balloon-type object in his mouth during a frisk and, when ordered to spit it out, petitioner swallowed it. Although no physical evidence was found after petitioner was placed on a two-day contraband watch, the misbehavior report and supporting testimony at the hearing nevertheless provide substantial evidence to support the determination of guilt (see Matter of Kimble v Fischer, 56 AD3d 879, 880 [2008]; Matter of Gee v Goord, 21 AD3d 636, 637 [2005]). Petitioner’s remaining contentions, including that he was denied the right to call a witness and improperly denied documentary evidence, have been reviewed and are either unpreserved for this Court’s review or without merit.

Lahtinen, J.P, McCarthy, Rose and Egan Jr., JJ., concur.

Adjudged that the determination is confirmed, without costs, and petition dismissed.
