Eric T. Schneiderman, Attorney General, New York (Seth M. Rokosky of counsel), for appellants.

Vincent P. Nesci, P.C., Mount Kisco (Vincent P. Nesci of counsel), for respondents.

Order, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Alison Y. Tuitt, J.), entered February 1, 2016, which, to the extent appealed from, granting the petition to the extent of vacating the determination of respondent Department of Motor Vehicles, dated September 18, 2014, upholding the imposition of monetary penalties against petitioner Aristo Arteaga, unanimously reversed, on the law, without costs, the determination reinstated, the petition denied, and the proceeding brought pursuant to CPLR article 78 dismissed.

The imposition of a civil penalty upon both Arteaga, in his capacity as a certified motor vehicle inspector, and petitioner AAC Auto Service, in its distinct capacity as a licensed official inspection station, for violations arising from the same conduct does not constitute a prohibited double fine (see Vehicle and Traffic Law § 303 [h]; Matter of GR Auto & Truck Repair v New York State Dept. of Motor Vehs., 150 AD3d 730 [2d Dept 2017], citing Matter of Khan Auto Serv., Inc. v New York State Dept. of Motor Vehs., 123 AD3d 1258 [3d Dept 2014]). Concur—Richter, J.P., Kapnick, Webber, Oing and Singh, JJ. [Prior Case History: 2016 NY Slip Op 30238(U).]
