Opinion

1998-08465

Submitted February 21, 2002.

March 18, 2002.

In a proceeding pursuant to Social Services Law § 384-b to terminate parental rights, the mother appeals from an order of disposition of the Family Court, Kings County (Hepner, J.), dated July 27, 1998, which, after fact-finding and dispositional hearings, inter alia, terminated her parental rights and committed the custody of the child to the petitioner.

Peter Dailey, New York, N.Y., for appellant.

Cynthia W. Rountree, New York, N.Y., for respondent.

Robert Marinelli, Brooklyn, N.Y., Law Guardian for the child.

Before: MYRIAM J. ALTMAN, J.P., GABRIEL M. KRAUSMAN, GLORIA GOLDSTEIN, HOWARD MILLER, JJ.


ORDERED that the order of disposition is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

A suspended judgment may be revoked if the Family Court finds that a preponderance of the evidence adduced at a violation hearing establishes noncompliance with a condition of that judgment (see, Matter of William Ralph T., 286 A.D.2d 441; Matter of Alka H., 278 A.D.2d 326; Matter of A. Children, 255 A.D.2d 510). The evidence presented at the violation hearing supports the Family Court's determination that the mother failed to satisfy the conditions of her suspended judgment and that the termination of her parental rights was in the best interests of her child (see, Matter of Natanya Sharay G., 232 A.D.2d 487-488; Matter of Maldrina R., 219 A.D.2d 723, 724).

The mother's remaining contentions are without merit.

ALTMAN, J.P., KRAUSMAN, GOLDSTEIN and H. MILLER, JJ., concur.
