Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 to review a determination of the New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal, dated August 30, 2002, which, after a hearing, granted the application of Trump Village Section 3, Inc., for a certificate authorizing eviction proceedings against the petitioners.
Adjudged that the determination is confirmed, the petition is denied, and the proceeding is dismissed on the merits, with costs payable to the respondent New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal.
There is substantial evidence in the record to support the determination of the respondent New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal that the petitioners were subject to eviction from the public housing apartment they occupied (see 9 NYCRR 1727-1.1 [e]; 1727-1.3 [b] [3]; [c], [h]; 1727-5.3 [b] [1]; 300 Gramatan Ave. Assoc. v State Div. of Human Rights, 45 NY2d 176, 180 [1978]; Matter of Jones v Hudacs, 221 AD2d 531 [1995]).
The hearing officer properly rejected the petitioners’ defense sounding in equitable estoppel (see Matter of Daleview Nursing Home v Axelrod, 62 NY2d 30, 33 [1984]; Matter of Parkview Assoc. v City of New York, 71 NY2d 274, 282 [1988], cert denied 488 US 801 [1988]; Scruggs-Leftwich v Rivercross Tenants’ Corp., 70 NY2d 849, 851-852 [1987]; F.A.S.A. Constr. Corp. v Village of Monroe, 14 AD3d 532, 534 [2005]).
The petitioners’ argument that their due process rights were violated by the hearing officer’s reliance upon regulations not
The petitioners’ remaining contention is without merit.
Accordingly, and for the reasons stated in Matter of Kiselgofv New York State Div. of Hous. & Community Renewal (22 AD3d 853 [2005] [decided herewith]), the determination must be confirmed. Prudenti, P.J., H. Miller, Spolzino and Lunn, JJ., concur.
