Opinion
In a child protective proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article 10, the mother appeals from an order of the Family Court, Queens County (Salinitro, J.), dated April 9, 2013, which continued the placement of the subject child in the custody of the Commissioner of Social Services of the City of New York until the next permanency hearing
ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements.
The appeal from the order must be dismissed as academic, as the order has already expired by its own terms (see Matter of Grayson J. [Sharon H.], 119 A.D.3d 575, 989 N.Y.S.2d 95 ). Moreover, since the mother's parental rights were subsequently terminated, and we are affirming the order of fact-finding and disposition in the related termination proceeding (see Matter of Stephen Daniel A. [Anonymous], ––– A.D.3d ––– – [Appellate Division Docket No. 2012–08370; decided herewith] ), any modification of the order appealed from would have no practical effect (see Matter of Tyler C. v. Andrea G., 82 A.D.3d 1093, 919 N.Y.S.2d 344 ; Matter of Ernest Y. v. Orange County Dept. of Social Servs., 9 A.D.3d 411, 779 N.Y.S.2d 364 ; Matter of Keith C., 226 A.D.2d 369, 640 N.Y.S.2d 221 ).
