February 24, 1992
Appeal from the Family Court, Kings County (Schechter, J.).
Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements.
The appellant has absconded from her placement with the Division for Youth and a warrant has been issued for her arrest. Therefore, since the appellant is unavailable to obey the mandate of the court, the appeal is dismissed (see, People v. Howe, 32 N.Y.2d 766; People v. Barnes, 143 A.D.2d 837). Sullivan, J.P., Eiber, O'Brien and Ritter, JJ., concur.
