No. 52
v
Louis A. Molina, & c., Respondent.
Peter A. Barta, for appellant.
Amanda Iannuzzi, for respondent.
The Legal Aid Society, amicus curiae.
Judgment affirmed, without costs. The Appellate Division did not abuse its discretion in dismissing as moot so much of the petition as sought defendant's immediate release. Insofar as the petition sought other relief, the petition is now moot, and we decline to apply the mootness exception. Chief Judge Wilson and Judges Rivera, Garcia, Singas, Cannataro, Troutman and Halligan concur.
Decided October 16, 2025
