Ordered that the appeal by the mother is dismissed, as she is not aggrieved by the order ( see CPLR 5511); and it is further,
Ordered that the order is affirmed on the appeal by Peter C. Lomtevas; and it is further,
Ordered that one bill of costs is payable by the appellant Peter C. Lomtevas to the respondents.
The Family Court providently exercised its discretion in imposing sanctions and costs upon counsel for the mother, Peter C. Lomtevas, for making frivolous motions to impose sanctions and costs upon the Law Guardian and the father's counsel. The record supports the Family Court's determination that the motions were completely without merit in law or fact, and were made primarily to harass or maliciously injure another ( see 22 NYCRR 130-1.1 [c] [1]; Greene v Doral Conference Ctr. Assoc., 18 AD3d 429, 431; Kucker v Kaminsky Rich, 7 AD3d 491, 492; Tyree Bros. Envtl. Servs. v Ferguson Propeller, 247 AD2d 376, 377). In support of the motions, Lomtevas submitted, inter alia, affidavits from a doctor that are rife with unfounded, gratuitously offensive, and utterly unacceptable attacks upon counsel for the father, the Law Guardian, and the Family Court ( see Matter of Winston, 243 AD2d 638; Matter of Jemzura v Mugglin, 207 AD2d 645).
