Matter of Faneca v. Faneca

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Mar 30, 2000
270 A.D.2d 489 (N.Y. App. Div. 2000)

Opinion

Argued February 22, 2000.

March 30, 2000.

In a child custody proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article, the mother appeals, as limited by her brief, from stated portions of an order of the Family Court, Westchester County (Edlitz, J.), dated June 25, 1999, which, inter alia, granted custody of the parties' two children to the petitioner father.

Raoul Lionel Felder, P.C., New York, N.Y. (Myrna Felder of counsel), for appellant.

Joel Martin Aurnou, White Plains, N.Y., for respondent.

Lucille Oppenheim, White Plains, N.Y., Law Guardian for the children.

CORNELIUS J. O'BRIEN, J.P., DAVID S. RITTER, THOMAS R. SULLIVAN, NANCY E. SMITH, JJ.


DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

The record provides a sound and substantial basis for the Family Court's determination (see, Eschbach v. Eschbach, 56 N.Y.2d 167 ). It is in the best interests of the children for the father to have custody (see, Eschbach v. Eschbach, supra; Raybin v. Raybin, 205 A.D.2d 918 ; Lohmiller v. Lohmiller, 140 A.D.2d 497 ; Daghir v. Daghir, 82 A.D.2d 191, affd 56 N.Y.2d 938 ).

The appellant's remaining contentions are without merit.

O'BRIEN, J.P., RITTER, SULLIVAN, and SMITH, JJ., concur.
