MATTER OF DEJA E., Page 1272

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

Memorandum:

Respondent appeals from an order adjudicating his child permanently neglected and terminating his parental rights. We reject the contention of respondent that Family Court erred in determining, based upon his admission, that he permanently neglected the child. Respondent does not contend that his admission to permanent neglect was inadequate ( cf. Matter of Atiba Andrew B., 275 A.D.2d 320, 321; Matter of Matthew H., 274 A.D.2d 975), nor does he contend that it was unknowing or involuntary ( cf. Matter of Commissioner of Social Servs., 232 A.D.2d 557, 557-558).
