ORDER

2
This matter is before the court upon consideration of the appellee's motion to dismiss the appeal as moot.  The appellant has failed to respond.


3
A review of the documents before the court indicates that appellant appealed from the district court's denial of his 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2255 motion challenging the Parole Commission's unfavorable parole determination.  However, as a result of an appeal taken by appellant to the Parole Commission's National Appeals Board his parole date was advanced to December 15, 1990.


4
Appeals become moot pending appeal if the requested relief has been granted or no live controversy remains.    Deakins v. Monaghan, 484 U.S. 193, 199 (1988);  Brock v. International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace & Agricultural Implement Workers, 889 F.2d 685, 690 (6th Cir.1989);  Neighbors Organized to Insure a Sound Environment, Inc. v. McArtor, 878 F.2d 174, 178 (6th Cir.1989).  The Parole Commission's unfavorable parole determination was changed and the parole date set for December 15, 1990.  Moot issues are not decided by this court.    Ahmed v. University of Toledo, 822 F.2d 26, 27 (6th Cir.1987);  In re Knoxville News-Sentinel Co., 723 F.2d 470, 473 (6th Cir.1983).


5
It is ORDERED that the motion to dismiss be granted.  Rule 8, Rules of the Sixth Circuit.  The case is remanded to the district court with instructions to vacate its order.    Deakins v. Monaghan, 484 U.S. at 204;  Great W. Sugar Co. v. Nelson, 442 U.S. 92, 93-94 (1979) (per curiam).
