KATERINA STYSIS, Respondent, v. JULIAN STYSIS, Appellant.

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

Contrary to the defendant's contention, the Supreme Court properly denied, without a hearing, his separate motions to modify the terms of the parties' stipulation as to custody and visitation. "A parent who seeks a change of custody [or visitation] is not automatically entitled to a hearing, but must make an evidentiary showing sufficient to warrant a hearing . . . [Here,] [t]he Supreme Court providently exercised its discretion in finding that the father failed to meet his threshold burden of proffering sufficient evidence to warrant a hearing to determine whether, under the totality of the circumstances, a change of custody [or visitation] would be in the best interests of the child[]" ( Salick v Salick, 66 AD3d 757, 757-758 [citations omitted]).

There is no merit to the parties' remaining contentions.
