    In the Matter of Audley Dacosta, Appellant, v Brion Travis, as Chair of the New York State Board of Parole, Respondent.
    [800 NYS2d 863]
   Appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court (Ceresia, Jr., J.), entered September 16, 2004 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.

Since the determination giving rise to this CPLR article 78 proceeding, petitioner has reappeared before the Board of Parole and his request for parole release was granted. Accordingly, the instant appeal is now moot and must be dismissed (see Matter of Lenihan v Travis, 17 AD3d 740 [2005]).

Cardona, P.J., Mercure, Crew III, Peters and Spain, JJ., concur. Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, as moot, without costs.
