Matter of Ryan

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Dec 21, 1995
222 A.D.2d 339 (N.Y. App. Div. 1995)

Opinion

December 21, 1995

Appeal from the Family Court, Bronx County (Rhoda Cohen, J.).


The Family Court properly awarded custody of the child to the father on the basis of evidence that the child was more stable with the father than the mother ( see, Friederwitzer v Friederwitzer, 55 N.Y.2d 89). We note the mother was unable to physically control the child and stop his fighting with his older half-brother, and that the father promised to cooperate in the child's therapy and counseling.

Concur — Wallach, J.P., Kupferman, Ross, Williams and Tom, JJ.
