MATTER OF DORIAN DANIELS, SR., PETITIONER-APPELLANT, v. CELESTE M. DANIELS, RESPONDENT-RESPONDENT.

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

It is hereby ORDERED that the order so appealed from be and the same hereby is unanimously affirmed without costs.

Memorandum:

Family Court properly dismissed the petition seeking a change in custody at the close of petitioner's case. Even accepting as true petitioner's proof, affording petitioner every favorable inference to be drawn therefrom and resolving questions of credibility in his favor ( see Matter of Le Blanc v. Morrison, 288 A.D.2d 768, 770), we conclude that petitioner failed to make a prima facie "showing of a change in circumstances which reflects a real need for change to ensure the best interest of the child" ( Matter of Irwin v. Neyland, 213 A.D.2d 773, 773; see Matter of Zito v. Pfohl, 302 A.D.2d 918; Matter of Dordell v. Dordell, 234 A.D.2d 868, 869).
