Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York ex rel. Alan Graham, Appellant, v James Sullivan, as Superintendent of Sing Sing Correctional Facility, et al., Respondents.

Opinion:
— In a habeas corpus proceeding, the petitioner appeals from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Dutchess County (Rubenfeld, J.), entered August 6, 1987, which, after a hearing, dismissed the proceeding.
Ordered that the appeal is dismissed as academic, without costs or disbursements.
The petitioner was released from custody on October 19, 1987, and is therefore, not entitled to the extraordinary relief of habeas corpus (see, People ex rel. Julio v Walters, 58 NY2d 881; People ex rel. Wilder v Markley, 26 NY2d 648; People ex rel. Owens v Sullivan, 128 AD2d 572; People ex rel.
