v
K. CROWLEY, SUPERINTENDENT, ORLEANS CORRECTIONAL FACILITY, RESPONDENT-RESPONDENT.
THE LEGAL AID BUREAU OF BUFFALO, INC., BUFFALO (JAMES M. SPECYAL OF COUNSEL), FOR PETITIONER-APPELLANT.
BARBARA D. UNDERWOOD, ATTORNEY GENERAL, ALBANY (BRIAN D. GINSBERG OF COUNSEL), FOR RESPONDENT-RESPONDENT.
Appeal from a judgment (denominated order) of the Supreme Court, Orleans County (James P. Punch, A.J.), entered August 22, 2016 in a habeas corpus proceeding. The judgment dismissed the petition.
It is hereby ORDERED that said appeal is unanimously dismissed without costs.
Memorandum: Petitioner appeals from a judgment dismissing his petition for a writ of habeas corpus. The appeal has been rendered moot by petitioner's release from custody (see People ex rel. Valentin v Annucci, 159 AD3d 1391, 1392 [4th Dept 2018], lv denied 31 NY3d 911 [2018]; People ex rel. Moore v Stallone, 151 AD3d 1839, 1839 [4th Dept 2017]; People ex rel. Yourdon v Semrau, 133 AD3d 1351, 1351 [4th Dept 2015]), and we conclude that the exception to the mootness doctrine does not apply (see generally Matter of Hearst Corp. v Clyne, 50 NY2d 707, 714-715 [1980]).
Entered: November 9, 2018
