Opinion
October 22, 1998
Appeal from the Family Court, New York County (Richard Ross, J.).
Since petitioner has evidently failed to file a notice of appeal as to the subject order, this Court is without jurisdiction to review that order ( Matter of Winans v. Manz, 54 A.D.2d 597). In any event, since the final order of protection, dated August 12, 1997, expired on August 11, 1998, and was not extended, this appeal, even if jurisdictionally proper, would be dismissible for mootness since its determination would not affect the rights of the parties ( Matter of Hearst Corp. v. Clyne, 50 N.Y.2d 707, 713-714; Matter of Greene v. Greene, 216 A.D.2d 393), or have enduring consequences. In this last connection, we note that Family Court never made a determination that petitioner committed a family offense ( compare, e.g., Matter of Cindy L. S. v. David L. S., 247 A.D.2d 543).
