N.Y. Public Service Law § 4-b: Removals

§ 4-b. Removals. The governor may remove any public service

commissioner, now in office or hereafter appointed, for inefficiency,

neglect of duty or misconduct in office, giving him a copy of the

charges against him, and an opportunity of being publicly heard in

person or by counsel in his own defense, upon not less than ten days'

notice. If such commissioner shall be removed the governor shall file in

the office of the department of state a complete statement of charges

made against such commissioner, and his findings thereon, together with

a complete record of the proceeding.
