Opinion
Nos. 2008-07354, Docket No. V-1176-07.
May 26, 2009.
In a proceeding pursuant to Domestic Relations Law § 72 for grandparent visitation, the petitioners appeal from an order of the Family Court, Rockland County (Christopher, J.), dated June 20, 2008, which, after a hearing, dismissed the proceeding for lack of jurisdiction.
Rosenbaum Rosenbaum, P.C., New York, N.Y. (George D. Rosenbaum of counsel), for appellants.
Cassandra Bilotta, New City, N.Y., for respondents.
Margaret A. Clark, Katonah, N.Y., attorney for the children.
Before: Mastro, J.P., Miller, Chambers and Austin, JJ., concur.
Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.
The Family Court correctly dismissed the proceeding for lack of jurisdiction ( see Becker v Toshiko Watanabe, 109 AD2d 861).
The petitioners' remaining contentions are without merit.
