Matter of Rinaldi v. Rinaldi

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
May 5, 1997
239 A.D.2d 506 (N.Y. App. Div. 1997)

Opinion

May 5, 1997

Appeal from the Family Court, Suffolk County (Lynaugh, H.E.).


Ordered that the appeal from the order dated October 3, 1995, is dismissed, without costs or disbursements, as that order was superseded by the order dated December 8, 1995; and it is further,

Ordered that the order dated December 8, 1995, is affirmed insofar as appealed from, without costs or disbursements.

The issues raised by the father on this appeal are not reviewable. The Family Court properly denied the father's objections on the ground that he failed to file proof of service of a copy of the objections on the mother. Family Court Act § 439 (e) provides, in pertinent part, that "[a] party filing objections shall serve a copy of such objections upon the opposing party", and that "[p]roof of service upon the opposing party shall be filed with the court at the time of filing of objections and any rebuttal". By failing to file proof of service of a copy of his objections on the petitioner, the father failed to fulfill a condition precedent to filing timely written objections to the Hearing Examiner's decision and order ( see, Matter of Fokine v Prisciantelli, 208 A.D.2d 534). Consequently, he waived his right to appellate review of the objections ( see, Matter of Star v Frazer, 232 A.D.2d 570).

Bracken, J.P., Sullivan, Santucci and Altman JJ., concur.
