## Opinion text

Motion for permission to continue prosecution of the appeal notwithstanding relator’s release denied. On the court’s own motion, appeal dismissed, without costs, upon the 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 MwrMey, 26 NY2d 648 ).
