Matter of Edward

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department
Mar 1, 1985
109 A.D.2d 1103 (N.Y. App. Div. 1985)

Opinion

March 1, 1985

Appeal from the Erie County Family Court, Killeen, J.

Present — Dillon, P.J., Doerr, Denman, Boomer and O'Donnell, JJ.


Order unanimously reversed, on the law and facts, without costs, and petition dismissed. Memorandum: The evidence adduced at the hearing was insufficient as a matter of law to support a determination that petitioner was guilty of conduct which, if he were an adult, would constitute assault in the third degree (Penal Law § 120.00 ). In describing a tussle with Edward, complainant failed to establish that he suffered either "impairment of physical condition or substantial pain" (Penal Law § 10.00; see, Matter of Edward M., 88 A.D.2d 776).
