Opinion

June 29, 1998

Appeal from the Family Court, Queens County (Lubow, J.).


Ordered that the order of disposition is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.

In order to establish neglect, the petitioner was required to prove, by a preponderance of the evidence, that the physical, mental, or emotional health of the child was impaired or in imminent danger of becoming impaired by reason of the appellant's failure to exercise a minimum degree of care in providing the child with proper supervision ( see, Family Ct Act § 1012 [f]; Matter of Nassau County Dept. of Social Servs. [Raul B.] v. Diane B., 231 A.D.2d 523, 524). Here, the record amply supports the Family Court's finding that the child was neglected by the appellant within the meaning of Family Court Act § 1012 Fam. Ct. Act (f).

Rosenblatt, J. P., O'Brien, Ritter and Krausman, JJ., concur.
