In the Matter of Richard E. Dunavin, Appellant, v Brion D. Travis, as Chair of the New York State Division of Parole, Respondent.
[764 NYS2d 367]

—Appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court (Connor, J.), entered September 18, 2002 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.

Petitioner has reappeared before the Board of Parole since the parole release determination giving rise to this proceeding and his request for parole release has again been denied. Given petitioner’s subsequent appearance before the Board, the instant matter is now moot and must be dismissed (see Matter of Boddie v New York State Div. of Parole, 306 AD2d 661 [2003]).

Cardona, P.J., Mercure, Carpinello, Rose and Lahtinen, JJ., concur. Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, as moot, without costs.
