Description
[56 A.D.2d 598 Page 598] In a proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 to review respondents' determination denying seniority credit for continuous substitute service rendered under per diem certificates prior to September 1, 1972, petitioners appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County, entered October 8, 1976, which dismissed the petition for failure to state a cause of action.

Section 484 of the board's own by-laws defines a regular substitute teacher as one who is assigned by the Superintendent of Schools at the beginning of the term, or within fifteen calendar days following the first day for the reporting of newly appointed teachers, to a position open for a full term.
