Dutchess County Department of Social Services ex rel. Cynthia W. v. Dana L.

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Jan 19, 1988
136 A.D.2d 636 (N.Y. App. Div. 1988)

Opinion

January 19, 1988

Appeal from the Family Court, Dutchess County (Marlow, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

Contrary to the petitioner's contentions on this appeal, we find no basis to disturb the trial court's assessment of credibility, its determination of the weight to be given to the blood-grouping tests results, and its conclusion that the petitioner did not meet the burden of establishing by clear and convincing evidence that the respondent is the father of the subject child (cf., Matter of Joan G. v Robert W., 83 A.D.2d 838). Mollen, P.J., Lawrence, Weinstein and Kooper, JJ., concur.
