Opinion
April 25, 1997
Present — Denman, P.J., Pine, Callahan, Boehm and Fallon, JJ.
Appeal unanimously dismissed without costs. Memorandum: The orders of Family Court denying petitioner's ex parte applications for orders to show cause and dismissing the underlying petitions are not appealable as of right ( see, CPLR 5701 [a] [2]; Parkchester S. Condominium v. Pickett, 209 A.D.2d 291; Matter of Michael JJ., 200 A.D.2d 80; Matter of McKee v. Coughlin, 142 A.D.2d 798; Pastore v. Boone, 127 A.D.2d 872).
Were we to reach the merits of the appeals, we would conclude that the court did not err in dismissing the petitions on the ground that petitioner lacked standing ( see, People ex rel. Antonini v. Tracey L., 230 A.D.2d 869) and that it properly refused to sign petitioner's orders to show cause ( see generally, Siegel, Practice Commentaries, McKinney's Cons Laws of NY, Book 7B, CPLR C2214:27). (Appeal from Order of Erie County Family Court, Szczur, J. — Reassign Counsel.)
