The People of the State of New York ex rel. Michael Soto, Appellant, v. Harold W. Follette, as Warden of Green Haven Prison, Respondent.
Argued October 8, 1970;
decided October 15, 1970.

Appeal dismissed, without costs, on ground that relator has been released on parole and, therefore, his liberty is no longer restrained to such a degree as to entitle him to the extraordinary writ of habeas corpus. (See People ex rel. Wilder v. Markley, 26 N Y 2d 648 ; CPLR 7002, subd. [a].)
