RAISED FIST DID NOT SUPPORT AN INTERFERENCE-WITH-AN-EMPLOYEE CHARGE 3RD DEPT.

The Third Department determined a raised fist was sufficient to support the “creating a disturbance” charge, but not the “interference with an employee” charge:

… [A]s to the charge of interfering with an employee, while the evidence establishes that prison staff were alarmed by petitioner’s gesture resulting in additional staff reporting to the mess hall, we agree with petitioner that these facts, standing alone, do not constitute substantial evidence to support the finding that petitioner “physically or verbally obstruct[ed] or interfere[d] with an employee,” and, therefore, the determination should be annulled to that extent… . While the normal duties of the prison staff were presumably interrupted or redirected when they responded to the incident in the mess hall, this, in our view, is not the type of conduct that the at-issue rule was designed to prevent … . Matter of Taylor v Lee, 2017 NY Slip Op 05903, 3rd Dept 7-27-17
