Opinion

majority opinion

—Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Helen Freedman, J.), entered on or about July 19, 1999, which denied petitioner’s application to annul respondents’ determination terminating petitioner’s employment as a probationary police officer, and dismissed the petition, unanimously affirmed, without costs.

For the reasons stated in Matter of Williams v Safir (265 AD2d 182), we reject petitioner’s argument that because of McKinney’s Unconsolidated Laws of NY § 891 (L 1940, ch 834), he could not be terminated without a hearing. Concur — Nardelli, J. P., Rubin, Andrias, Buckley and Friedman, JJ.
