Matter of People ex rel. Green v. Saunders, 2016 NY Slip Op 8959, 145 A.D.3d 642, 42 N.Y.S.3d 812 (N.Y. Ct. App. 2016).

Opinion

Appeal from judgment (denominated an order), Supreme Court, New York County (Kevin B. McGrath, J.), entered on or about February 4, 2016, denying the petition for a writ of habeas corpus and dismissing the proceeding brought pursuant to CPLR article 70, unanimously dismissed, without costs, as moot.

This appeal challenging the legality of petitioner’s preconviction detention is moot, since petitioner is currently incarcerated pursuant to a judgment of conviction (see People ex rel. *643 Macgiollabhui v Schriro, 123 AD3d 633 [1st Dept 2014]), and no exception to the mootness doctrine applies (see Matter of Hearst Corp. v Clyne, 50 NY2d 707, 714-715 [1980]).

Concur— Mazzarelli, J.P., Sweeny, Richter, Manzanet-Daniels and Fein-man, JJ.
