Matter of Elizabeth

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Oct 10, 1995
220 A.D.2d 511 (N.Y. App. Div. 1995)

Opinion

October 10, 1995

Appeal from the Family Court, Kings County (Dabiri, J.).


Ordered that the order of disposition is affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements.

The determination by the Family Court that the petitioner met its burden of proof is entitled to great deference by this Court (see, Matter of Frank T., 215 A.D.2d 562). Contrary to the appellant's contention, the testimony of the child sexual abuse expert properly corroborated the child's hearsay statements (see, Matter of Nicole V., 71 N.Y.2d 112).

The appellant's remaining contention is without merit. Miller, J.P., Altman, Goldstein and Florio, JJ., concur.
