MEMORANDUM:
The order of the Appellate Division insofar as appealed from, as limited by the briefs, should be affirmed, without costs.
This Court's review is limited to whether the Appellate Division abused its discretion in declining to invoke the mootness exception to review the merits of certain of petitioner's challenges in this proceeding. There was no abuse of discretion here (see Matter of David C.,  69 NY2d 796, 798 [1987]; Matter of Anonymous,  55 NY2d 1021, 1022 [1982]).
Order insofar as appealed from, as limited by the briefs, affirmed, without costs, in a memorandum. Chief Judge Wilson and Judges Rivera, Garcia, Singas, Cannataro, Troutman and Halligan concur.
