    In the Matter of Theodore B. Eden, Petitioner, v Board of Regents of the University of State of New York et al., Respondents.
   Proceeding "pursuant to CPLR article 78 (initiated in this court pursuant to subdivision 4 of section 6510 of the Education Law) to review a determination of the Commissioner of Education which suspended petitioner’s license to practice podiatry for a period of three months and imposed a fine of $1,000. Petitioner’s contention that the penalty imposed is disproportionate to the offense and shocking to one’s sense of fairness is without merit (Matter of Yasmer v Ambach, 78 AD2d 752; Matter of Foreman v Board of Regents of Univ. of State of N. Y., 75 AD2d 953). Petitioner’s argument that the charge committee was forced to vote charges by a member of the Education Department’s legal staff is without merit. We have examined petitioner’s other contentions and find them unpersuasive. Determination confirmed, and petition dismissed, without costs. Mahoney, P. J., Greenblott, Main, Mikoll and Herlihy, JJ., concur.
