Notes of Decisions

   General
   Daycare provider appealed a Department decision to revoke her permit. Because the provider was allowed to operate during the pendency of her appeal, the appeal was dismissed as moot when the permit in question expired at the end of its 2-year term. Britt v. Department of Public Welfare, 787 A.2d 457 (Pa. Cmwlth. 2001).
