ORDERS:
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
This matter is before the Administrative Law Judge Division (Division) pursuant to the
Appellant's Notice of Appeal filed on February 16, 2001, in which the Appellant appealed a final
decision issued by the Department of Corrections (Department). The Department filed a
Motion to Dismiss with the Administrative Law Judge Division on August 10, 2001, setting
forth that the Appellant has been released from the custody of the Department thereby rendering
this appeal moot. See Mathis v. South Carolina State Highway Dep't, 260 S.C. 344, 195 S.E.2d
713 (1973) (An issue is moot when a judgment on the issue will have no practical effect on an
existing case or controversy.) Therefore, finding good cause,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this appeal be DISMISSED.
AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
