APPEARANCES OF COUNSEL
Dawne A. Mitchell, The Legal Aid Society, New York (Hannah Kaplan of counsel), for appellant.
Steven Banks, Corporation Counsel, New York (Jamison Davies of counsel), for Presentment Agency.
Appeal from a temporary order of protection of the Family Court, New York County (Betsey Jean-Jacques, J.), entered on or about January 9, 2025, unanimously dismissed, without costs, as moot.
Appellant's appeal from a temporary order of protection is moot, as that order was vacated and expunged before its expiration on February 6, 2025 (see Matter of Muhamad Omar W. [Jessica W.], 204 AD3d 453, 454 [1st Dept 2022]). Contrary to appellant's contentions, we find no exception to the mootness doctrine (see Matter of Veronica P. v Radcliff A., 24 NY3d 668, 671 [2015]; Matter of Hearst Corp. v Clyne, 50 NY2d 707, 714-715 [1980]). Concur—Moulton, J.P., Scarpulla, Kapnick, Shulman, Michael, JJ.
