Dominick v. Rosina

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Aug 12, 1996
230 A.D.2d 760 (N.Y. App. Div. 1996)

Opinion

August 12, 1996


In a matrimonial action, the plaintiff appeals, as limited by his brief, from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Levitt, J.), dated May 5, 1995, as, after a hearing, issued a permanent order of protection prohibiting the plaintiff from having contact with his son. The appeal brings up for review so much of a resettled order of the same court, dated September 20, 1995, as made the temporary order of protection dated June 29, 1994, permanent ( see, CPLR 5517).

Ordered that the appeal from the order is dismissed, without costs or disbursements, since the order was superseded by the resettled order; and it is further,

Ordered that the resettled order is affirmed insofar as reviewed; and it is further,

Ordered that the Law Guardian is awarded one bill of costs.

The Supreme Court properly issued the permanent order of protection directing the father to stay away from his son. The Law Guardian proved that the father sexually abused the child. Moreover, the father was not prejudiced by the Supreme Court's in-camera interview of the child ( see, Matter of Angelina AA., 211 A.D.2d 951; Matter of Kim K., 150 Misc.2d 690; Matter of Anne B., 131 Misc.2d 478; Matter of Tara H., 129 Misc.2d 508, 516; cf., Matter of Leslie C., 224 A.D.2d 947). Miller, J.P., Ritter, Santucci and Altman, JJ., concur.
