Matter of Davila v. Travis

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Third Department
May 11, 2000
272 A.D.2d 699 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000)

Opinion

May 11, 2000.

Appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court (Malone Jr., J.), entered August 12, 1999 in Albany County, which dismissed petitioner's application, in a proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78, to review a determination of the Board of Parole denying petitioner's request for parole release.

Carlos Davlia, Collins, appellant in person.

Before: Cardona, P.J., Crew III, Spain, Graffeo and Rose, JJ.


MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

Inasmuch as petitioner, a prison inmate, has reappeared before the Board of Parole since the January 1998 parole release hearing that gave rise to this appeal and his request for release on parole was again denied, the instant appeal is moot and must be dismissed (see, Matter of Keating v. New York State Div. of Parole, 252 A.D.2d 635). Petitioner's assertion that this matter presents an exception to the mootness doctrine (see, Matter of Hearst Corp. v. Clyne, 50 N.Y.2d 707, 714-715) has been examined and found to be unpersuasive.

Cardona, P.J., Crew III, Spain, Graffeo and Rose, JJ., concur.

ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed, as moot, without costs.
