Opinion
September 30, 1997
Motion for permission to proceed as a poor person and for assignment of counsel on appeal denied and appeal dismissed.
Present — Pine, J.P., Lawton, Callahan, Doerr and Balio, JJ.
Respondent consented to a finding of neglect, waived a dispositional hearing and consented to the placement of her children in the custody of petitioner, Erie County Department of Social Services, for one year. Under those circumstances, no effective relief is possible with respect to her appeal from an earlier order denying her motion for return of the children after they were removed pursuant to Family Court Act § 1027 (see, Matter of New York City Dept. of Social Servs. [Kalisha A.] v Diognes T., 208 A.D.2d 844; Matter of Catherine W. v. Donald W., 166 A.D.2d 651; Matter of Ciotti v. Butera, 24 A.D.2d 983). Thus, the appeal is dismissed.
