OPINION OF THE COURT
Michael C. Lynch, J.
In January 2011, petitioner was terminated from his employ*636ment as a custodian with the Hoosick Falls Central School District pursuant to the procedures set forth in Civil Service Law § 75. By memorandum and order dated March 29, 2012, the Appellate Division determined that the penalty of termination was “so disproportionate as to be shocking to one’s sense of fairness” and “remitted [the matter] to respondents for imposition of a less severe penalty” (Matter of James v Hoosick Falls Cent. School Dist., 93 AD3d 1131, 1133-1134 [2012]).
