Opinion
December 29, 1995
Appeal from the Family Court, Queens County (Schindler, J.).
Ordered that the order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
The petitioner seeks to be allowed to take the parties' eight-year-old son with her to an Immigration and Naturalization Service training program in Georgia for approximately four months. In light of the disruptive influence that such a move would have on the child's visitation with his father and on his schooling and home environment, we agree with the Family Court that the proposed move is not in the best interests of the child (see, Domestic Relations Law §§ 70, 240; Eschbach v Eschbach, 56 N.Y.2d 167; Matter of Schimler v Schimler, 203 A.D.2d 580).
The petitioner's remaining contentions are without merit. Mangano, P.J., Miller, Copertino, Santucci and Hart, JJ., concur.
